I guess my question would be, what range of hands should oppont have in order to make this call acceptable.

Any 2, apparently.OK, serious answer.The pot is 14146 after all the money goes in. He has to call 5123. To break even he has to win 5123/14146 = 36% against your range.I think you can pretty much figure on getting called here.

Why are you pushing?You are reraising someone who opened the pot, yet your stack is way too small for them to fold AND you have 6 HIGH?If it folds around to you on the button and you wanna push, that's fine. Don't come over top of someone here unless you have a hand that can actually win.David is right. You're gonna get called by any 2 cards here becuase the pot odds dictate it. Since you're getting called, the odds that your 6 high is the best hand, or even drawing well are very very slim.Did you really think he'd fold for that raise?I'm completely puzzled.

I like the play if you had and villian had 12k in chips. With your both your stacks your play is complete suicide. As far as what makes his call acceptable i would say any pair and AJ+. In fact if you were to show him KK and he had A2, he would almost have the correct price to call.

Why call me if he would almost be crippled if he lost? plus hes raising 1800, he can still fold & live to fight another day. Again, why would he risk his entire tournament life if he can still get away? If he has me slightly covered, does he still have "pot odds"? Calling off basically his entire stack? Thats where im puzzled.

So can you.If he's raising, there's a reason for it. The fact that he's putting in 25% of his stack should tell you he's playing for keeps. There is no reason whatsoever to become involved here.The justification that "he can still fold" doesn't matter when you know he's committed to the hand already.

If villian has any clue about pot odds he is not folding many hands that he has raised with (and rightly so).

My buddy won a big tourney on FCP a year or two ago when he made a move like this on the short stack at the final table. Someone raised and he stuck it with 7-3. The other player predictably called and turned over 2-2. I have a feeling that's where we're going here.
