Two Ways of Looking at It

When I called the PF 4Bet with AsQS in MP, I was looking at the pot odds (11%). But, in hindsight, I wonder if I should have thought more about the ranges of Villains. With this many players entering a big pot, what are the chances that one of them has AA, AK, QQ, putting OOP Hero in a terrible spot, no matter what the odds?

Online .02/.5 5NL

UTG: 22.8 bb
UTG+1: 108.8 bb
Hero (MP): 89.4 bb AsQs
MP+1: 50 bb
CO: 260.8 bb
BTN: 137 bb
SB: 18.4 bb
BB: 59 bb

UTG calls 1 bb
UTG+1 raises to 4 bb
Hero raises to 13 bb
MP+1 folds
CO calls 13 bb,
BTN folds
SB folds
BB calls 12 bb
UTG raises to 22.8 bb and is all-in
UTG+1 calls 18.8 bb
Hero calls 9.8 bb
CO calls 9.8 bb
BB calls 9.8 BB

Flop: (114.4 BB, 5 players): Ad 6d 2d
BB checks
UTG+1 bets 86 bb and is all-in
Hero folds,
MP+1 folds
CO folds
BB folds

Turn: (114.4 BB, 2 players) 8d

River: (114.4 BB, 2 players) 2c

UTG shows Ts Tc (Two Pair, Tens and Twos)
UTG+1 shows Ac Kh (Two Pair, Aces and Twos)
UTG+1[ wins 108.8 BB

Weird spot, but you have the odds to call even if you know they only have QQ+/AK. And try to always play 100bb deep if you dont play a short stack strategy.

Thanks. I generally chip up pretty quickly. Must not have had the chance yet here.

Dont know on what site you play, but on most of them you have an option to add chips when you fall under 100bb. It will be easier and you dont have to do that after every hand.
