villan has shoved quite a few times in this spot and is clearly trying to take some easy blinds.i think a call is right but we all know sky likes to pay off people shoving with rubbish hands ( probably doesnt help that a got smashed up with ak a few times today).
Do i lay it down or was it the right call ?

    I presume other guy has 3481 due to adding up to 12k. 

    If he's been shoving a lot then calling is fine as you should ge ahead a lot of the time, uf anything you could call even wider vs him. 

    Plus here you are ahead, only 60-40 but could be much better when he has Ax/Kx.

    You would fold the AK hand, just wondering is this due to having 10bbs or the fact the big stack has shoved, surely this is +EV as he's acting like a maniac and you'll be ahead a lot.

    who said it was fixed?
    i posted the other hands because thats the way my day went yesterday so folding my ak to the big stack was probably a better choice.
    imo its probably a 50/50 call - take the chance to double up or let it go and try and target the other stacks.

    "think a call is right but we all know sky likes to pay off people shoving with rubbish hands"

    the other hands have no bearing on this one

    yeah calling is +ev but if the other players r bad, esp the other 2k stack then folding can be higher +ev

    that will depend on your edge in the game thou
