    As u can see I was 2nd in chips with pwnasaurus. We had both 3 million at 80k/160k, what is just under 20BB. there were 2 shorties left with 6 and 9 BB's.

    I'm not sure if i played the hand right, so please help me out:

    1. Was the opening ok? Or do we just openshove?

    2. Was the call ok? Villian is a good player and I think JJ is def. ok against his range, since most of the time he has QQ, AK and TT, 99.

    3. Should we have folded, since there were two shortstacks left?

    I'm not sure about the call, but I think the race was okay, since the winner would have been one of the 2 CL.
    Payjumps is very top heavy, meaning the jump from 3rd to 2nd and 2nd to 1st is huge, compared to the rest.

    1. $6300

    2. $4400

    3. $3000

    4. $2500

    5. $2000

    i'm going to be nice and say you're being RO, and leave it at that. The only mistake you made was allowing a K to flop.

    Played it perfectly. Opening here instead of jamming is going to get him to shove hands you want to get in against that he might fold to a shove.

    i think you know the answer to this.

    If you pass up these spots, the wins will be even more elusive.

    FWIW, i would open for slightly more, if you have any chance at folding this, as you disguised your hand well enough to invite a reshove....so...good luck next time.
