Jaded Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 180 man $2 Turbo SNG on Stars, getting close to the money - about 35 left, 18 paid. Having been on the table for about 15 hands, have only got to showdown once (my AQ vs QT losing on river), hand before this I shoved with AJo to take the blinds. Other than that, checked down my big blind and folded everything else pre-flop. So ultra-tight by my standards!

Fonzie14 Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 Re: TT Shove or Call? With an M of 3, I push here. If you call and someone behind you pushes, you have a dificult decision. So avoid that and push now. :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punto Banco Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 Re: TT Shove or Call? With the limper's stack of 4400 he must have a marginal hand (although being the tourney it is nothing is certain) so you cant really worry about him too much prob overs but will he call the all in... maybe but you are not behind him thats for sure and with that considered you must push... with an m of under 5 the only thing that should stop you pushing is the threat of action that has already entered the pot. You really dont want a caller here however you don't have a choice and if it comes down to it then so be it you should at least be 55%...:ok Note: M is Blinds + antes in relation to your stack in case you haven't read Harringtons yet, which by the way would be a much bigger mistake than calling here...

robilaruk Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Re: TT Shove or Call? Seat 4: Wilfried Fun (4415 in chips) Seat 7: JadedJ (3910 in chips) Should I shove here, or just call? I would shove even though it looks like the villian is slowplaying AA/KK and hoping for action. You don't have enough chips vs the blinds to fold (I think) and its too much of your stack to simply call PF and then fold the flop if you miss/he shoves, so its an easy decision for me.

Blatch Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Re: TT Shove or Call? Insta Shove without any hesitation, you need those blinds and prefrably a double up :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyhornet Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Re: TT Shove or Call? You have to shove. If you call and the flop comes down AJ7 (for example) and the villain shoves, you'll have no idea where you are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bignedkelly Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Re: TT Shove or Call? i would shove - however i would also be pretty confident of getting beat as tens are reffered to by me and my mate as "the curse" due to the countless times we have been beaten either with them or against them - but imo shove and hope for folds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
