    Below is a typical example. I struggle with this and need your feedback. I would say in the tourneys where there are very few fish (big buyins), it's no doubt better to pfr with this hand rather than shove.

    1) So if we agree to pfr at table full of regs, what's the sizing?
    1a) and If we do get shoved on (or 3B), is there anyone at the table below that's you'd fold? Or are you getting your chips in no matter what happens?

    2) Now assume it's a $10 Buyin tourney and everyone at table is a call station. Do you now prefer a shove, 3x open (what sizing do you prefer?), min pfr, or something else?

    3) I struggle with whether I should even play this differently depending on if this table is all competent regs vs if this is a table w/ ton of call station fish?

    Thanks.

    4 of the other players have short stacks (< 25 BBs), so I'd expect a 3B jam a lot of the time over your initial raise, in which case I'm calling them. The large stacks are all in late position (except muggy), so I'd expect them to 3B to 6-8 BBs rather than jam, in which case I would 4B jam. With this particular table setup, I can't see folding TT.

    If you had a couple 30-40BB stacks in EP that 3B your initial raise, I'd be a little more worried.

    Minraise dont shove. You want to give someone the opportunity to get it in with a worse hand.
