Was this the correct call to make. The bubble had burst and they were around 20 left. I was coming 5th at the time.I realise i am ahead in this instance (he has A9 off suit) and the opponent sucks out, but is this a standard call or a fold?

Also is there anychance of a complete tournament hand review session, or how do i go about getting one done?

Thanks!

I think its really close, was it a turbo? Im definitely calling with 77 here, so Im not really sure how much different they are, except we are ahead of more aces pre. Should also consider your equity in the tournament, taking a flip here for over half your stack when sitting 5/20 isn't necessary. If it were me I might just nit fold and find better spots/hands to call off with. You're loving it when he has 22-55, and when he shows up with A2-A5, but I think more times than not you'll be in a flip situation here, and one I think we dont need to take with our equity in the tournament. Also, were you running a HUD? If so what was he running?

moved to MTT strat – ask the pros section is for non hand related questions.

I agree with James here too, this is really borderline. doesnt mean its bad but i think its either the absolute bottom of our calling range or top of our folding range.

I just did a nash calculation, and according to that, villain should be shoving 22+ Ax+ K6s+ KTo+ Q9s+ QTo+ J8s+ JTo T8s+ 98s 87s, and we should be calling with 33+ A4s+ A7o+ KTs+ KQo QJs. So if villain can shove properly i think it is a clear call, but i think most villains shove tighter than nash

So as my original thoughts, i think either calling or folding is ok, its kinda neutral EV imo

Awesome replys thanks guys. I didnt have stats on the guy but he had been pretty active and had lost a big flip a few hands ago. Therefore i thought he might be tilting a little bit as well as was shoving a wide range.

But agree with both of you guys. A fold is probably correct here, i shouldnt be flipping for half my stack this deep. So thanks again for your replys.
