THE SCENARIO

Blinds: 25,000-50,000 with a 5,000 ante

Your Hand: K Q

Stack Sizes: You (1,525,000) Villain 1 (3,275,000) Villain 2 (1,100,000)

The Action: Sitting at the final table with eight players remaining, Villain 1 raises to 125,000 from late position, you make the call from the button, and Villain 2 calls from the big blind. The flop comes K J 9 and Villain 2 checks, Villain 1 does the same, and you bet 250,000. Villain 2 folds but Villain 1 check-raises all in, having you covered. Villain 1 is a young, aggressive pro. What do you do?

YOUR OPTIONS

Option A: Fold

Option B: Call
