    Ok so coming up on the bubble today stars 5pm 50+5 40k.... i don't have stack sizes here didn't copy the whole hand history but they all were very deep well over 20 bb's here that limped in front.... i know my shove seems somewhat excessive ...but i was OOP and knew any raise was getting called b/c the one guy had about 80k and was calling and seeing every flop..... so is this a retarded over shove???? or standard???

    ** HOLE CARDS ***
    Dealt to D.Scroggins
    capirossi x: calls 600
    Jimmy_TwoX: folds
    GRRR WOTEVA: calls 600
    Sagoten: folds
    Fileip: folds
    MacDreezyubz: folds
    ProXimaVez: calls 600
    D.Scroggins: raises 15508 to 16108 and is all-in
    ??????

    there is 600 x 4 in the pot plus 300 SB = 2700+ antes around 3k in the pot before i act my stack is about 26BB's blinds going up to 4/800 in about 2 mins......

    Thoughts???

    not bad but if you "know" one of the guys is definetly calling why not raise to like 4000 and jam any flop since you get to act first. aq is crushing his range and if hes definetly calling you might as well get that big call out of him pre and youll still be crushing him after the flop unless he gets lucky.

    It's understandable that you wouldn't want to play AQ offsuit multi-way and OOP, but I don't believe jamming, even when you figure to get the call from the LPP, (such a boon to have at one's table!) with your stack is best. I much prefer making this about 3600-4k to go to, hopefully, thin the field. Why put your tourney life on the line this way when there's no need for it?
