    I don't think you needed to shove in this spot. A large bet would have gotten you the same information and wouldn't have put so many chips at risk imo. Not to mention you might have scared some people out of the pot that you could have got chips from. Granted, that didn't happen, so maybe this was table dependent.

    you didn't raise enough pre. Your shove is pointless, betting is way more optimal

    At first I wanted to say that you are never getting called by a hand you beat here, then I saw there was a caller with 94s. Betting would be better. I guess raise more pre with all the limpers but I think the hands these players were in there with is so horrible.
