Would you call or fold????

your on the button with AJ, theres a SS that has pushed all-in.
Now you know the SS will end up shoving with PP AJ and up, now would you call.

Even tho everything tells you to only call with

KK AA

Or would you take that as a bad pick up from playing freerolls for calling with AJ.


Any type Os i cant fix, my key board is messing up.

Even running it thro Pokerstove

How short is the opponent in comparison to your stack and the blinds? If he's 1-3 BB I would call with AJ, but it depends on th stack sizes.

ok you would be sitting on about 4K in chips, he would have just under 1K. blinds 50/100
Tight player.

u playing in a freeroll,i would call.

If he had a very big hand most probly would go for some value because he needs the chips so u know ist not AA KK QQ JJ, worst case it is a race,and u have to win a few races in Freerolls to cash.

If he's a tight player and three from cashing with a decent stack I would fold. From what you said, you would be racing at best, and you would call for 1/4 of your stack.

if it was a freeroll id call lol since most hands a q a j are good in that situation cash game i would probably fold it unless in calling and losing your not going to take a big hit to your chip stack at that point i would be folding otherwise

With blinds still that low SS doesn't have alot to gain by shoving here (only 150 in chips), even if he has <10bb's. You also don't mention what position he's shoving from.... this makes a difference.
You're not closing out the action... say you flat for 10bb's.. and then the SB or BB shoves over you?? you're f'd then.
How does gaining the 1,000 chips affect our chances of winning the tourney compared to the effects of losing the 1,000 would be?? (<< something many don't seem to consider in tourney play). My guess... losing the 1,000 will have a far greater negative impact at this stage than winning the 1,000 would have for a positive impact. Get what I mean.

middle position 6th seat, you would be on the button

Being only three spots from cashing I am folding. You mentioned that this player is tight, which probably means that you are chasing. I think you would be risking more than you would gain.

i would call his all in if he is short stack. maybe u can get lucky u never know

Don't know what tournament you are playing if the average chip stack is 2k in an MTT three from the bubble. It's an easy fold really, you are risking 1/4 of your stack to only gain 1k chips. You are only getting pretty much one to one to call wich is horrible odds for a call. Also, as someone else said if the SB or the BB shoves you are then screwed. You ran it in poker stove and it shows that AJ is a dog to the known range. Easy fold!!! Also, if I were to play this hand for some reason, I would never call in this spot, I would raise, most likely push with the stack size I have to isolate.

Then what would you do, if he has AA?? plus like trigga and the rest said. You are putting your self in a bad spot to call, with the BB, SB still to act yet.

um you would be an under dog in the hand. I stopped calling all-ins with AJ, coz when i did play AJ i ran in to AK, AQ, AA To many times.

As long as i have a read on someone, and know there playing tight, and i have not seen them in a hand for some time i ante calling.

i 2nd that

I agree with most of what the other have said.

AJ really is just not all that great a hand when faced with an all in from even a short stack.

If that short stack is tight there is a reason why he is short stacked and also a reason for the shove.

If he was a lose maniac who had been raising a lot and gotten to being short stacked that way you might be inclined to contemplated the call.

But, 3 from the money, you can find a much better spot to invest 1/4 of you stack on if you are only a coin flip, assuming you aren't behind.

Plus as was mentioned. If the SB or BB shove after that you are pretty much screwed.

Not knowing the stack size, I think it is a fold for me.

if my stack were like 8 times bigger then probleably yes, but not sure... looking how much far is money and how active he was before that allin

To the ones that say they would call.
