    Kind've a weird/thinnish spot I wanted some input on. Up to now I haven't been very active, have opened a couple pots that didn't go my way/got shoved on and had to fold. Was down to around 18K a few hands ago and have shoved twice during last orbit to get what I have now. The table unfortunately has a few strong players including Muck and AceHigh. The blinds are going up to 2400 within 1 min, so with my position is this a trivial shove or can I possibly fold and wait for a "better" spot?

    Folding, but it's fairly close.

    Think I'd jam like 24k at most.

    Cool. Since it seems pretty unanimous so far I'll just go ahead and give results. Lab Rat pretty much posted my exact thought process. I went to fold and then thought about the blinds going up <1min. and the fact that I'd have to go thru the blinds at a very active table and a couple really strong players with stacks who open every pot and figured that made it close enough to shove. I'm pretty sure the spot is razor thin either way, although I didn't like the fact that I had been seen actively shoving recently. Maybe that makes it more of a fold. I dunno. I ended up shoving and not really liking it while I did it/felt confused and ran into AJ and got bounced. I guess that gave me a bit more time to think about the spot. Maybe this is a leak I can shore up in my game. I FT bubbled this last week and have had other assorted deep runs in it that haven't gone too well, so that made it a bit more painful. Thanks for responses.

    Just out of curiosity though, is KJs also a fold for everyone as described?
