Can I fold?

(1/3) > >>

pokerpops:
5 left of 31 in a £10 FO, 3 paid - it"s a crapshoot with 108,000 chips in play and blinds at 2,000/4,000

I"m BB with 10,500

UTG has just lost all but 2,000 of his stack in an AK v AQ and shoves his last 2,000 in - folded to SB (CL with c 35,000) who shoves and obviously covers me. SB is very aware of what he"s doing and effectively getting a freeroll on his call. He can be doing this with a wide range - I"d say any pair and any two broadway cards

Does it matter what cards I have? If so, what do i need to be calling?

edit - I have 6,500 left if I fold

shozboy1:
do you have 10k left after posting your BB? If so I may fold. Also, what size stacks do others have? If they"re stacks are similar to yours, then again, a fold may be sensible.

LongshanksED:
Crapshoot yes!

Do you have 10k after you"ve posted the blinds (effectively you started the hand with 14.5k) or you now have 6.5k after posting

of you have 6.5k after posting then you"ve gotta call with virtually any 2 suited or unsuited connecters  or pair IMO and pray you get lucky as you"ll effectivelly be all in next hand

if you have 10.5k after posting you could let this one go unless you use the gap concept which IMO would be ak/aq/ or 1010+ and then force the pressure in the next hand

edited - I had 6,500 behind

Mikeyboy9361:
I would CLs range is even wider than that, so you are pushing with any 2.
