Re: Opinions Wanted It's an interesting hand. His raise on the button 3 handed and 30bb deep means he could have any 2 cards. Your 3 bet is a must and I like the sizing too. Now once he 4 bets you have to put him on a range but in this position his 4 bet range is going to be a lot wider than normal. We know what he was holding but I think in this situation a lot of players would 4 bet a 88 - AJ range. If you put him on that range I like your shove but if he has a far narrower 4 bet range it is possible to fold as you've only invested 4bbs but with a 30bb stack it's not bad but what you have to ask is what hands would he fold once he's invested nearly 30% of his stack. Anyway 3 handed there it's just so easy to instashove just unlucky to run in to a bigger hand
