Blinds are 2000-4000. Hero has A Q off suit on the button. All fold to hero. Hero bets 8000 with 60000 stack. BB goes all in with 18000 more. Should this be a call or fold??

Thank U 4 Posting

In a situation like this we would estimate our Villains range.

Villain Range-AA KK QQ JJ 1010-77?-22? AK-A10? AKS-A5?

So we fold if our V's range is narrow AA-1010-AK AQ only.

We are getting 1.8 to 1 to call which means we need 46% equity to call. So if our V plays the larger range we can call.
The key is to estimate the range as well as you can.

Also we are blocking AA QQ AK with our hand so the range leans to KK-99 etc so it is likely that we are very close to our 46% equity if not above it.

The last point is we will still have 42K left after we call so this is not an error that kills our chances. Unless you meant 8k out of your 60k stack which then puts us at 34K after we call.

Hope this helps

Villain has 5bb, so his range would be vary wide. This would be a call as based on that range you have more than enough equity to call. Plus you cover him.

Also, is this on the bubble or ICM consideration?

it depends on my stack and the information I have accumulated on these two players. if all lights are green. I can afford to call to see the flop.

AQ Offsuit

Blinds are 2000-4000. Hero has A Q off suit on the button. All fold to hero. Hero bets 8000 with 60000 stack. BB goes all in with 18000 more. Should this be a call or fold??

Hello.
If this happens to me, with AQ offsuit in any position and a 3 bet or more hits the board, I fold. Also important to note here, if I am less than 15 blinds (you were right on 15 BB) and BB goes all in with 4+ BB, I will fold.

Here's what I usually will do:
1. As a starting hand and I am first to bet, I raise (including UG).
2. If there are 2 or more limpers, I fold.
3. If I am raised to, I reraise (providing it is 2BB or less).
4. If someone 3 bets or more, I fold.

Good luck, good question!
