Villain - 60 BB in MP
Hero - 18 BB in HJ


60 players left, 10 places paid, blinds going up in 1 minute leaving me with 15 BB


Villain is a crazy player, has a big stack and has already lost about 2/3 of it in the last orbit.
Very active raising preflop, been shoving the last few hands, lost the last 2 hands


Action folds to Villain, he shoves all in


I have :6h4::6s4:


Do you call or fold?

What did villain shove with when he won or lost those several hands? I don't play on ACR so don't know if hands are instantly mucked or do they always show when shoving like on PS?If they do show, then you should know more about your opponents range, and whether 66 are ahead or not.
If we have no info on the villain, at all, I would personally fold, because almost always villain will have two overs (we coin flip) or a bigger pocket pair (we are dominated). Also, blinds will not affect you for another 4 hands, so there is a chance of getting better cards for a shove.

I would fold 66. So many better opportunities you can get with that many bbs. I think 9s I would call.

even if he is crazy, with 66 you have probablu coin flip. I think with your stack You can wait for better hand :)

But call will be good. If it would be on the bubble You should fold it :)

6s are pretty weak hand when you're sitting on a 18-15BB stack to call all in from HJ (3 players left to act in a freeroll). Even if the shove is from a maniac. You can find a much better spot! I think!

For me is a Fold! 66 is not very strong, so no way I will pay an All in this situation, If you get down to 10BB then I will call. :flute:

it depends on your stack related to the blinds, if you are very short, you can call, else is a clear fold. also, as he has much more than you, i tend to fold here

Yeah I would call with just about any small pocket pair but I'm just trying to get to the Flop so I can hopefully catch a set

In this situation you should fold. About your stack and hand.. calling a shove or shoving yourself are two very different situation.
It is good to shove 66 in late position with a small stack, or so many other hands.. but better to call just with bigger ones 99+ AQ+ probably.

Hands that the player chooses not to show, even at show down, are not available (That I know of, if they are, SOMEBODY TELL ME HOW PLEASE!!!!)

It's a tough spot. In general, I would fold 66 to a shove. You still have enough of a stack to wait for a better hand.

Villain here can play loose this with about with 27%+ range. Example his minimum range: 22+, A2s+, K9s+, Q9s+, J9s+, T8s+, 98s, A5o+, KTo+, QTo+, JTo. Your 66 with his 27% range is here with 52% equity. Your stack is only to push. I play this coinflip.

He will be looser in that position, but even than 66's are at best a coinflip. If you are going for the win and aren't looking to just min cash in a freeroll for a couple cents, I would be calling this and moving on with my day if I didn't hit it. Obviously there are differences in a freeroll and a tournament that you paid $50 to get into, so I wouldn't worry about playing PERFECT poker in a freeroll. Mostly because it is not a good sample of players. You are most likely playing with 99% fun players that go in with just about any hand they "feel" like is a winner.
