15 left from 10k guaranteed
blinds are enormous 3000/6000. avg stack is 70k. utg 15k goes all in.
BB has j10 and 63k left after posting BB.
call or fold? why?

I think it's mostly an odds problem.
There's 9000 plus 15000 in the pot, so 24000 in the pot. It's 9k to call, so thats 24 to 9, or 2.66 to 1. I think that makes it a fold, but I guess if I'm feeling frisky a call wouldn't be horrible. But for the most part its a fold. You could make a case to conserve chips and not call, but this guy has an M of under 2 so he could push with anything.

That's exactly why I call, and probably with any two cards. JTo is definitely good enough. A super short stack pushing from UTG says "I have two cards" and not much more - this guy's desperate for chips. I don't give this move a lot of respect, so the 2.7:1 odds make it an autocall.

yeah, for me it almost no-brainer call here. looks like he's taking a stand here instead of letting the blinds hit him.
I figure him for a Kx, Qx, or Ax. But he could be worse than that.
Even if I lose, I'd have $54K left and still in a decent position. If I win, I'm up to $87K and one player closer to the money.
