BB is 21/17, SB is 34/25. Small samples on both but seem reasonably decent.

IPoker, $0.05/$0.10, $0.02 ante No Limit Hold'em Cash, 6 Players
Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite.

SB: $10 (100 bb)
BB: $10 (100 bb)
UTG: $10 (100 bb)
MP: $24.37 (243.7 bb)
CO: $15.73 (157.3 bb)
Hero (BTN): $11.26 (112.6 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BTN with 9 J
UTG posts BB OOP, UTG checks, MP folds, CO raises to $0.30, Hero calls $0.30, SB calls $0.25, BB calls $0.20, UTG calls $0.20

Flop: ($1.62) 5 8 7 (5 players)
SB checks, BB bets $1.40, 2 folds, Hero calls $1.40, SB raises to $3.60, BB raises to $9.68 and is all-in, Hero says wtf?!

Snap call?

Spoiler

Intuitively it seemed like a fold, because I must be against really strong ranges. However, I Equilab'd what I think are reasonable ranges and I was surprised how much equity I had:


       Equity     Win     Tie
BU     42.19%  41.61%   0.59% { Jh9h }
SB     28.90%  27.58%   1.33% { 88-77, 55, 96s, 64s, Ah7h, Ah6h }
BB     28.90%  27.58%   1.33% { 88-77, 55, 96s, 64s, Ah7h, Ah6h }

Hero says "I love gambling" and calls, hoping that SB also joins the party.

Edit: This is a typical thing to check out with precision in Equilab.

Agree, see my spoiler.

Suppose one has 88 and the other the nuts. You have 35% equity (in a 3-player deal with nice pot odds).

Suppose the BB has the nuts and SB folds. You have 48% equity (in a 2-player deal with dead money).

Not much to think about.
