    It's either a shove or a fold......never flat here. Depends on how you read your opponents.

    I had no reads. I had a lot of tables up at the time and unfortunately I had nothing on these two.

    I'd like to have some info on the opener in particular, but his raise is that of a weak player with a monster who's trying to encourage action-with 11 BBs, he should have shoved anything he played here-or who may fold a hand such as 88/99 against heavy action after him.

    You need to either shove or fold, and I prefer a shove against most opponents. Flatting would be terrible play.

    Since it is a $4 donakament, the only thing I'm doing before getting it all in is high fiving the monitor! Also, please never flat half of your stack pre with QQ.

    I dont see the range you are giving the opponent, but these numbers just dont look right to me, unless you ranged him with AA-KK........

    This.
    With no reads its marginal shove.
    Hoping for AJ & AK/JJ.
