I don't mind a shove as long as you've represented a tight image, and you have a decent read on MP1 that he would raise first in with a hand that can call here.You do still have a decent amount of play in your stack, but you will have to accumulate chips soon.

NEtwowilldo 0 Posted May 30, 2007 Author Share Posted May 30, 2007 Whew, I was hoping someone would say that instead of everyone being like check duh.Yeah I decided to push because no one was showing strength and I stood to increase my stack by 30% if everyone folded. Even if they do call, I'm not likely to be dominated.I did have a tight image as I always do in the early levels. Link to post Share on other sites
GeneralGeeWhiz 0 Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 Check and wait for a better hand. Early limper's could indicate small pairs, suited connectors or Ax. Shoving could result in one of them calling. Your M is around 8, so I would advocate waiting for a better hand. Link to post Share on other sites

I will make this play occasionally shorthanded when I notice three things: limper has been limping way too much (ie he's not disguising a big hand), that he can/will fold to a raise, and that he hasn't had this play pulled on him too recently (by you or anyone else).
