    <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1226181103_1>1450 started 170 left and I have about an average chip stack
    short stack shoves obviously ATC , with a M of 3
    the player to my right shoves over 22BB and I have JJ
    I feel like I have the best hand . Limits just went up and players have to start to make moves. My thought process was the large stack wanted to Isolate the short stack because he was shoving with any 2. I limited his range from 77 to 10 10 or a big ace .
    Most of the time I fold 1010,JJ, to an all in and a shove. They don't play well in multi way pots.
    Thoughts value tornament life or look to almost triple up?

    Insta snap turbo call...JJ with 11bb and pretty much a guaranteed flip. I'd take it although I'm never winning it.

    I guess
    poker stove has JJ 40.33%
    AQ os 36.14
    K5 os 23.52

    what's the value of tornament life
    calling with a flip is that a good Idea?
    I'm mostly a limit player... it's easy here in Florida LOL

    I want to eliminate the mistakes deep in MTTs
