You could def call, however it's not gonna win more than a few Sklansky chips, since you almost certainly will be about a coinflip to win. I just cant him see pushing tens here. Another problem is someone might be behind you with queens or better. I think I'd fold too

agree this race is against aj +

gg

wow i didnt even notice the results good read me...but to answer your question


if someone pushes before me i fold with jacks in this position, only because i wanna open this hand with a raice, 600-900 if i get calld and an ace king or queen hits , i probably check down, flop like this i push 3 times a week and 4 times on sunday to even out to 7

no
they will limp with this hand in fear of a greater hand in more late position

but if its open in late position i push with the hands you mentioned

the 77-1010 push ep is -ev IMO

but you do say a good point about the 8bb < , indeed a good push otherwise limp for set value or play in position

Any time I would open push AK like that in a tournament I would also push 77+. Namely when I have about 8bb or less.

AK should be a lot stronger since it's only dominated by aces. Any big stack with tens or better might (should?) call.

But nevertheless a very interesting point you make, what to do with 77+ in that spot.

I dont know what kind of calls you want to see though, apart from AK/AQ I dont see many that you like.
