  2. Completely standard, I think. His range has to be REALLY tight for you not to have the equity to get it in here.
     
  3. So I agree too that this is standard, BUT is this a spot where vs. a big stack you tighten up and fold?
    I mean its not likely Villain is folding to re-raise here, so is nitting up and folding ever an option for anyone? Really I'm not happy trying to double up with A8 even if it is sooted.

    except Blind vs blind

    Reason: blinds
  4. I was sure that the reraise shove all in with 10x was pretty much the ONLY play here.
    Would be interested in other views.

    I go with this one.

    Your play is all in or fold for the most part but I agree with the tighten up (depending on position).
  6. yup agree, gotta shove there
  7. I don't mind this as it may be the right play, at 10 bbs, I really want to be first in... But I wouldn't call that shove not standard, especially suited! Heck u had 2 overs.. I just really want to be first in
  8. ur play is fine there, i would do the same. ur low stacked and villian's range is wide there.
  9. villain opened full 3x, so you have no FE. Was he opening a lot in LP? What was his standard raising size? If he was opening 1.1-1.2 before than this 3x raise meant he prolly had something. Just "standard" reshoving 11x otb when a "big" stack opens in HJ/CO isnt always the right play. So what were your reads?
  10. yeah ; fine play unless villain s really tight
