  2. this is close man but i think i shove here about 80% of the time with all the dead money in the pot.. hopefully just take it down without showdown. If you happen to get called you are certainly still drawing live..to conclude raise it to 90 000 and then call reraise/shove.

    I agree, you are only worried about the inital raiser, I don't see the caller having Q9, and he would have raised to protect any other strong made hands. I like a slightly smaller raise ~80000, and then calling a shove, and if your raise is flatted, shoving the turn unless it is a Q.
  4. Shove, this pot is big enough to want to take down now, and you have plenty of fold equity.
