    Default final 3 of $3 rebuy

    4,000/8,000 Blinds 800 Ante (3 handed)

    Button (t134,540)
    Hero (SB) (t223,952)
    BB (t1,060,508)

    Hero's M: 15.55

    Preflop: Hero is SB with Q, A
    Button raises to t133,740 (All-In), Hero calls t129,740, BB raises to t259,480

    The BB had been hyper agro and very cally throughout the FT. He showed up with random cards a lot vs smaller stacks. The Button had been fairly tight at the FT but was very agro around the money and FT bubbles.
    Check out my self-deprecation here!

    I don't understand why you have called the BTN raise, just shove.

    You can't really fold now.

    Shove over the button - you are not going to be folding after calling for half your stack.

    I don't mind the call if you want the BB to shove weaker Ax or Some Kxs so long as you know we are calling for that reason. If you're trying to get a cheap flop this late in the game then just don't. Shove is good, if we want to isolate the button. Your obviously all in here, so play it the way you expect to win the most.

    I love the call vs. a hyper aggro. "He showed up with random cards a lot vs smaller stacks. "

    I'd iso here for ICM reasons - if BB comes along we're at risk whereas if he folds we're putting BTN at risk for his entire stack and we can't bust against him. We don't really want BB coming along with Kxx when he can knock us out without knocking BTN out, so it's a great spot for a 1v1 KO when we have them covered and a step up the payout ladder
