DON - Horrible bubble spot

    Default DON - Horrible bubble spot

    Call or fold? As the SB is the other shorty, I'm kinda screwed if I call and screwed if I fold. What's your preference?

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, 10.8 Tournament, 125/250 Blinds 25 Ante (6 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    MP (t2413)
    CO (t2878)
    Button (t1816)
    SB (t955)
    Hero (BB) (t1168)
    UTG (t5770)

    Hero's M: 2.22

    Preflop: Hero is BB with 6, 5
    4 folds, SB bets t930 (All-In)

    Hero?

    Fold. You need a top 50% hand to call here and 65o is nowhere close. You can maybe try and time the blinds so the current SB is AI before you are or if this is not a possibility, I'd shove ATC where the current button is in the BB.

    Fold. I dont know ICM well, but I know 4 of the remaining 6 at your table don't either. Let them make mistakes. They will.
    LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

    Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!

    Good to hear. This was my conclusion but I needed someone else to say it.
