Re: Turbo Mtt opinions on hand?

could that 3 bet be with anything worse than A-J
Sure he could. He has just over 10bb left and could be shoving some worse aces, two broadway type hands. He defo should be shoving any pair and AT+, unless he's a complete nit. The only thing that worries me is that he's seen you raise from ep, so it looks like he's expecting a call, but even with a range of 55+, AQo+ you're getting the right odds to call. If his range includes broadway hands and 22+, then you're actually ahead of his range. Even when you get it horribly wrong and he shows up with AK or KK, you're still getting fairly close to pot odds. Hands like AJ are tricky to play when there are short stacks left to act after you. If you're not prepared to call in spots like this then you shouldn't be raising from ep. I would snap call here, unless I had the specific read that this opponent is ultra-nitty and incapable of jamming a non-premium hand.

Yeah your right thanks for the opinion. To be honest it is calling ranges I have my biggest problem with I think I know when to shove but calling is different and sometimes I think I am making bad fold i.e above which is leaving me short in the late stages of tournies

Download PokerStove and play around the preflop ranges. It's a great way of improving your shoving/calling ranges.
