If hes shoving ever other hand then you aren"t going to be stealing many blinds anyway. Snap call please

from what you have said there is only 1 other person on the table that will call this maniac without aces, if everybody keeps folding to him he could be out of sight before you catch him. It all depends on what you want to do, get in the money or win the tournament, if you want to win the tournament then its a snap call, since u would be a favourite to win (its closer to 2-1 with any random cards steve) then not only would you have an edge over the table, you will have a chip edge. If you want to just make the money then fold, but never ever show you made a big lay down, this will just give him more encouragement.
after saying all this though i bet you called and lost!
Swinebag:
I"m assuming the blinds are huge now so I"d call. At this stage of a tourney, you"d do well to get a better spot. Its not bubble time and you will need to increase your stack at some point to win this. I think you are most likely to be 60-65% favourite to win the hand and that is huge at this stage of the tourney.
If you are waiting for AA-QQ (or whatever it is that you want to call with) you could still lose the hand.

I"m with Greenstein on this one "Maths is for idiots" :D
Pretty sure if it was online you snap call. If we are anywhere around the 10-20 BBs deep this edge that i keep hearing of is being able to identify +ev situations and not what i think some people believe it to be.
What exactly are we waiting to call with if this guy has been shoving ATC every other hand????

I just want to be the one shoving rather than calling. I hate calling for my tourney with a marginal hand when still sitting deep enough to be able to wait for that "better spot".
