  1. Hey
    Wondering if some one could weigh in?

    So this was a 20 person satellite, where the top 2 get the seat/qualify, and 3rd was 2.5x buyin.
    V BU in this case was 22/18

    I was thinking that in a structure this fast, starting with a medium stacks ( started off with 30 bb), That I should shove Ako as I have FE on my side, and to flat OOP would be somewhat disastrous with a v who c-bets 80% + I prob would be against 2vs as MP would be getting odds to call. I'm wondering if optimal in this situation is to just fold, as its pretty much if I don't get a fold I'm 90% of the time gambling and 10% against AQ.

    Wondered if it is optimal to shove and take the gamble in this structure, or should I be looking for a better spot? Explanations are always super appreciated.

  2. ps, sorry thought about this after the fact, I reckon actually pretty much if I don't get a fold I reckon I'm 80% of the time gambling against a pair, 10% against AQ, 7% dominated by AA,KK, and 3% a wash against AK.

  3. i'd ship this every time in a 10$ satty with 30bb
     
  4. b4 u do anything u have 29 bb and ur at a full table. the stacks are pretty close except for 1 bs and both raisers have u covered. i think the optimal play is to fold. shoving against 2 raisers seems to me kind of weak because one of the 2 will have a hand. so that means ur racing at best. ur still sittin good w/ 29bb. like i said i fold there, but i shove all day if this was a hu situation.
  5. oops i thought you were the opener...yeah this is a pretty standard fold
     
  6. with 650 in the pot pre, you increase ur stack by 44% if u shove and get a fold, with 29bb i would find it hard to fold here, given the fast structure and the shallow stacks, i wouldnt mind playin for stacks rite here...glgl
  7. all i had to do was read ak and fast satty=shove that mudder fugger
