    Default KQs in BB on bubble facing BTN push

    $11 MTT (only decent game going on UB)

    21 left, 20 get paid, we are in about 13th place. 11th-20th get $1 profit so I don't give a shit about anything other than the final table (top 3 to be honest)

    Blinds 400/800 with 50 ante, 7 handed table

    Our stack is about 9500 and we are BB with

    It folds round to the button who shoves for 4000, I call?


    We have to call 3200 to win 5550 meaning we need 36.5% equity. If we lose we have 5500 chips.

    I'm pretty sure it's a +Chip EV call, but is that enough?

    Hand 0: 37.145% 36.78% 00.36% 181380180 1799814.00 { KQs }
    Hand 1: 62.855% 62.49% 00.36% 308163744 1799814.00 { 66+, AQs+, AQo+ }

    *caution, davidab157 posting in a tourney thread*

    Insta insta insta call.

    Would I be wrong in thinking we can call off our whole stack? Given that we're aiming for top 3 and not just to cash.
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

    Even on the bubble if he has us covered? Just checking cos I've been mostly a SnG player before where obv this is the incorrect play.

    But isn't the difference that in a SnG you want to cash but in MTT's you want to get top 3?

    This similiar situation occured to be however I was holing AK and the button showed J4 of diamonds. Naturally he hit his flush on the river.
    So I would fold if this where FTP however UB I do not know well I call however I hate to say it I think he shows a6 and were behind but win in the end cause were BAMF.

    O and the first half of my post was sarcasim if you didnt catch it lol
