PokerStars No-Limit Hold’em, 2.2 Tournament, 300/600 Blinds 70 Ante (6 handed) – Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

MP (t2900)
CO (t6784)
Hero (Button) (t12770)
SB (t26180)
BB (t8538)
UTG (t16910)

Hero’s M: 9.67

Preflop: Hero is Button with 9, 10
1 fold, MP calls t600, 1 fold, Hero bets t2000, 1 fold, BB raises to t8468 (All-In), MP calls t2230 (All-In), Hero (is saying dammit — looks like the odds to call, plus the blind levels increase every 5 mins)

Ok guys…The first guy, he just limps and limps and limps and limps. I mean no raises, limps around 45% of his hands. The guy in the SB is tight, like 15/8….Although if I call him I am almost positive my cards are live b/c he has not been shoving spots that he should be shoving (ie Open shoving his button). Then the limper pushes.

I was think well shit what have I got myself into. Its 6468 to call into a ~14k pot. Its around 2.2 to 1 on the call….I need to chip up fast b/c its a turbo, but the fact that this guy limp shove just seems fishy b/c if some1 raised after his shoved he normally folded…The SB is nitty. Although with my hand and the amount in the pot I dont think I should fold.

What do you think?

it is a pickle for sure 10 9 suited does play well pot odds are there although i hate calling here. i really think you need to fold here , but i really think these are the type of hands you need to be limping prime spot multi way pot with 2 limpers ahead giving great odds and you have postion i doubt id ever raise here pre because you really wanna see a flop with this hand and now i really think its a fold. and if i did raise here its fine in postion but id like a bet more around 1250 less painful when u need to fold and also not awful with your hand and postion if u get flattted,

Deal

Interesting spot. I think you can fold but in a turbo I doubt I would. Love to see what the instructors suggest.
