As played: It is pretty close but i prefer snap bet/fold pre! Well i do not judge people who snap call, but it is slightly negative expectation overall!

pot odds are ~37% you have to win it to be justified!

Against random spew usually we have ~33% equity here!

What means KO i am not familiar with some poker terms?

I think this is a KO tournament. (Knock-out, Bounty)

I think even if this wasn't a KO tournament it'd be a call. You have the chips to gamble and this player could be shoving a wide range here trying to get some chips back. You close the action also.

Good call IMO.

Here no stats and notes on villain, why he have only 10bb ? If we know that he LAG i am call easy, if tight fold...

It's a knock-out tournament, why not gamble even if he is tight?

When you open from the button you should have already decided if you are going to call the BB or not. R/F is ok vs some. But when you do this you have decent odds to call. Raise to 100 if you plan on R/F.

It's not going to matter too much what you choose here, you are still left with a more than playable stack if you fold it.

with the knockout bounty i think it's worth a call, you have a hand that is relatively safe from domination and runs really well, so ya, call.

Well now i know what KO is (Knock Out tourney).

As played in KO: b/c (bounty will justifie) But i really never fold it preflop, i will always bet/x imo!

Meh! Usually i make pre slightly bigger!

Raise with the intention of folding if the SB 3bets and you should already know that you're going to call any bet from the 10bb short stack. usually he'll have an Ax type hand and you'll be 40-45% equity. Given the money in the pot you have direct odds to call his jam not to mention the extra "equity" that comes from his bounty chip.

I prefer folding this pre flop and not risk any chips even min raising because of our 10bb stack. It's too short to even risk a raise with the intention of folding.

Chances of us min raising and getting through are very less so save those 2 bb is what i would suggest.:cool:
