another §)§"$(" situation i meet often

[Yezariael]

for example in 25K Sunday Tournament, Blinds at 400

I have 8.9K chips, BTN has ~6K chips

UTG+2 limps, BTN raises to 1.850, i sit in the SB with AhKh

BTN player is basically committed wether i shove preflop or we see a flop.. But i think a call is pretty weak here - on the other hand I put the tourament life at risk with a ~60% edge shoving vs 88+ AJ+ (KQ)

What would you do?
(Lots of players left btw..)

Throw it away. Better chances will come.

shove

muck and wait for better hand, sometimes better hands are right around the corner

you have AKs in a shallow stacked donkament vs a guy you have covered, and if that range OP is putting him on is approx correct, never fold!

you really must stop giving away all those secrets. Tell him to fold. You may meet him one day in a tournament and be glad you did.

But I like her reasons:D

[almurray]

Shove, but dont be surprised when you miss.

AK appears to be my worst hand.

Let me ask another one

$25 Freezeout, 170 players, about 50 players left, still a lot

Im in the C/O with AKh, the Big Blind only has 4-5BB left. I raise to about 3BB, BTN goes all in.. Since I raise the short stack from late position i expect him to have a wider Range then usually?

When i fold i have a little more then 14BB left, when i call and loose im gone, he has me covered by a bit

[minifish]

[Yezariael]

yeah made both calls, was crushed both times

:)

poker is not what you want it to be but maybe you can get where poker wants you to be ;)

[fritzson]

Foooooold! :P

[bluelips]

you can flatcall.....

as long as you shove every flop

meh I like it better if UTG+2 isn't in the pot, but I guess it would be alright. And I wouldn't say shove EVERY flop...especially if UTG+2 comes along, but lets say like 95% of them. I probs give up if it comes like 678s :P
