  1. Looking through PT, I find I lose a lot w/ 1010. Here is a recent example. We just cleared the bubble and I've only seen a couple hands at this table and thus have no reads. This is autoshove time no? I'm starting to think I'm losing it. Late limp is maybe spooky, but wtf..

  2. Absolutely a shove. Hands like these aren't losing you money with TT.
  3. late limp = never spooky

    only time it is scary is when u have a short-ish stack say 15bb or so and a strong player limps who doesn't normally limp.

    for ex... i am in bb with K6s. i have aprox. 15bb at 100-200/25 in the bellagio 2500. dutch boyd limps from MP with about 60bb or so.

    anyone else at table limps and i ship here 100%, there's too much in the pot to not shove ATC. however, dutch recognized the situation and limped with the intention of calling a shove. i check, fold to a bet when an ace comes.

    in this spot, two donkeys limp in the CO/button. this rarely means anything. shove!
