Hi,

Normally I would fold vs this kind of shove, but with villain's stats, their general aggression, and the fact this was the 3rd hand in a row I opened (button steal, then AA in CO) - do you think we can call?

Thanks!

These play are quite usual for these stakes. Fish tend to shove to deep. I would not call this because he has got you coverd. The chances that you flip or are behind dont weight that off. You need a clear read that he spew off with crap to call this. If you got him covered its closer but I tend to fold that too. The chances of getting larger bounties later in the tourney are better. This way you minimise variance a little bit but beaware this is just the case because you are so deep.
