I haven't run this, but I would say no, its def not a call, you are almost certainly up against AK QQ KK or AA, the very best case, say KQs, JJ, AT or some such hands.

Now you're still losing to pocket pairs, but dominate some hands. There is of course a huge pot to be won and then maybe you are in a great position to go deep.
So, if this is under your average buy in, I think you maybe sometimes call, but if not then no, you should never even consider it! How many player 4 bet with less than QQ AKo???

Thanks @SpanRmonka, I agree. I had a hard time seeing me being ahead in anyway in this spot. Maybe if he had a high VPIP and PFR we could consider this call on the SB, there is always the bounties in play as well. But still feel far behind in any scenario.
Another question, what softwares do you use for breaking down a hand?

I actually don't currently, its something I def should get into, but haven't quite found the time to get to grips with any of them yet!

I'm not happy folding this with less than 12 BB but I am definitely folding with a moan

Its a fold, when two players have moved in. The second player dont have fold equity, so unless he is known maniac, he should be on a very tight range.

I think it could be a call in some situations.

It all depends on the BTN's type of player, if it's a very loose player, then the SB shove is not that strong for you to fold. Of course, if the SB is not a very tight player.

On the other hand, you cannot win a bounty here, so I will lean towards the fold.

I think you can call this one, especially if BTN is shoving wide and SB can be reshoving light or trying to isolate.
