Live Tourney Shove On Button...

[river_me_this 0]

I was playing in a $90 tourney at Turning Stone Casino and after 80 people starting we were down to 12. With blinds at 1k and 2k with a 500 ante Im sitting with a stack of about 15k and am short stack at the table. There are six people at my table so the pot has 6k in it before action begins. So it folds to me on the button and I feel like I should be pushing with any two here correct? and I do with 6h2h. The small blind has about 18k and the big blind has about 35k. Is this play correct? Thanks.

u can find a better than than 62, u look desperate too so they might call u with ace ten or KQ even.

Interesting scenario, actually. With an M of only 3 (and an effective M of only 1.8 since there are 6 players), I think you have to shove ATC here when folded to you on the button. I would actually much rather do this with than something like QT, where if you get called you'll be dominated, or with J4o. You gotta put pressure on while you still have enough chips that a shove causes someone to not auto-call you with weaker holdings. The only variable would be if you've been shoving a lot lately. If you have, then wait for a slightly better hand. If not, then I vote shove here.

M= 2.5Standard shove, hope for the best

Yeah, unless you've been shoving every other hand, I'd shove it in here. You definately have enough FE against the SB, and does BB really want to risk half his stack with a marginal hand?

yea i pretty much thought I had to with close to half my stack out there before the action started. Thanks for the input.
