Have you been active? If so and he was a fish shoving a lot of hands, I'd snap. If not, I'd call anyway. Just gotta hold when they gift you stacks like that. This is how you win tournaments.

You say he is a fish shoving a lot of hands so this should be a pretty simple call as he could be limp shoving AT, AJ and alot of worse hands. Wouldnt be surprised if he shows up with QT and some other random Qx we dominate.

Yeah I had been pretty active up to that point and was in a bit of a cardrush, weeeeeeee!

I figured I probably had them crushed but wasn't sure if it was worth a call with my comfortable stack but then again maybe im too much of a nit 😛

I called, sashan85 had K9o and the shorty had KQo, sashan85 flopped a 9 and won a nice pot. now I know next time it's a snappy Mcfistpump without hesitation

cheers guys smile

I think you only have about 20-25bb effective at risk if I am reading this right. This is definitely not too much to risk when you have such a favorable spot.

Now, if you lose then you will have about 25bb which is a comfortable stack and you'll have to wait for another spot like this to get it in again. That's how I think about MTTs. I dont think in terms of having a stack so comfortable that I'm not willing to call off half of it until I get up over 100bb.
