timwakefield 68 Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 That's actually a tricky spot. Calling is the worst option, and then folding or shoving are close IMO. It depends on your reads on the first 3 players into the pot. Is the table very tight? Is there often a raise and then 2 calls in position? If the latter, then I like a shove. The only real player of the initial 3 that can have you dominated is the initial raiser, and his range is certainly wide. I suppose the 2nd caller could have jacks, but unlikely. I give little credit to the button shove - I think you're doing ok against his range here, and if you can isolate and get the dead money in the pot, then you should. So I've convinced myself that it's a shove.edit: I had misread your stack, and thought you had 3k. With just 2k I think it's even more of a shove. Link to post Share on other sites
Visnovsky 0 Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 I say shove, Button has an M of 7.5, which means his hand could be a lot of things of which 10-10 is better, unless he is a very tight player. The MP1's range of hands is probably worse than yours. I like pushing, if the stacks were much bigger I'd think about folding here. Link to post Share on other sites

Jam-Fly 8 Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 I shove here. Likely gona be heads up and a ton of dead money in the pot with TT. Flat callers likely dont have QQ-AA, first raiser may have JJ+ but may have about a bazillion other hands too. I think button's range is wide enough to make this a shove too.
