This from the Stars nightly (where I'm from) $1 3x Turbo Rebuy $40K gar.

I am pretty deep for this stage of the tournament and have 3x the average in chips with some 500 players left.

The villan is in the BB and has been at the table for 7 hands, and not played one yet. Simple question, should this be a fold or call?

PokerStars – $1+$0.10|8000/16000 Ante 1600 NL – Holdem – 8 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

Looks like he has it. It is very tough to fold though. Did you call?

Very clear fold. What are you expecting to beat if you call?

I did fold. It is nice to have it confirmed that it was the right decision. I find myself in this sort of spot a lot and wonder if I should be calling more of them than I do. Thanks for the comments.

This happens to me a lot too. Most often than not, I see people do this all in move with the nuts for value. And when this happens, I always rewind the whole story in my head and persuade myself to do the right thing. This is a very common move in the New Jersey networks btw, dont know how it goes in stars.
