All, this scenario came up from a previous thread:10 table sit n go, starting chips 800, current blinds 15/30Big Blind dealt AJos with 700 chipsUTG dealt J10 os goes all-in with 325 chipsButton dealt QJ os calls for 325 chips (leaving him with only 75 left)Everyone else folds to youThe question is this:Assuming you were 100% sure you knew what the 2 all-ins have, would you call?Why or why not?Assuming the same scenario, yet this is a 10 person cash game, would you call? (again assume you are 100% sure you know what the 2 all-ins hold)Why or why not?I've seen alot of discussion regarding tournament theory vs. cash game theory...I'd be interested in a few opinions...differing viewpoints welcome! :-)

I'd call it in a cash game for the simple reason that you're going to triple up roughly half the time and you can reload if all your chips are gone. In a tournament, I'd probably lay it down unless I felt I was outmatched at the table.Peace,Jay
