FT 33gtd KO: 77 vs 14bb shove

It's final table, and I was pretty active with opening almost any unopened pot that comes to me…Also, I folded 2 times on 3 bets and once on 4 bet… Only hand I shown was Q2s when I shoved from SB into 8bb stack on BB… So I guess my image was pretty bad…

I'm opening 77 here with intention to call short stack and fold to others… But when he shoved I kinda talked my self into folding… His stats was 8/8 on 30 hands, not sure but I guess it's all hands from this table… Also pokerdb say's he played like 100 tourneys so far, and this is probably his biggest success so far… So I kinda profiled him to be one of those players that would wait for good hand in this stage before they put their chips in middle even if they blind out to 4bb in that process… So I guess flip is the best I can hope… I'm looking at my stack, and If I lose I will have like 26bb, and there is no more light opening and light 3beting, I'll be in spot where I must wait for a hand…

After timebanking a while I finally decided to fold and wait for a better spot…

I've busted out 4th, and after reviewing Final Table play today, I find this hand as maybe the only spot where I could play different and maybe win this thing… So, I'm probably results oriented but today I wish I made that call tho it looked as good fold at the time… But again for 13bb I guess this is mandatory call… What do you guys think?

you have to raise here with the intention of calling his shove. It's a pretty tough spot, but with the money already in the pot i think you have enough equity against his range to call. I know what you are saying about him being scared money so late in a tournament, but I still think this is a profitable call giving your image/ position.

I agree with jshillings09. Definately have enough equity to make this an easy call although I do think we're behind here some and flipping more. 99+ AJs+ AQo+ KJs+ KQs+ JQs villain is tight, but the fact that he chooses to get it in from the SB here when he could fold and have a entire round to pick up real hand screams some strength. But then of course he may view u as beign somewt pushy and decided to make a play on you. Dont mind folding to keep stack intact and dont mind a call either.

to win this tourney this is 1 of about 8-10 flips you will have to win from this point on if you open in this spot with 77 you have to be resigned to the fact that hes the only player at the table you cant raise fold to and yes 33,44,55,66 is in his range even A2,A3,A4,A5 or A6,A7suited so i never fold in this spot
