    Anybody just shove in this spot? Trying to work on accumulation, and figure out how to maximize value of this hand without putting myself in too much danger by letting both see flop and having the odds to call my reraise.
     
  2. Personally, I think your line is fine, however I feel you could get a call from a hand like JJ if you pushed. Raising to 15k shows more strength than a push does (then AK is a reasonable hand for you in the eyes of the villain).
  3. that's my thinking, a push ofter times will get a call more than a shady value raise like that.
    My only thinking with going to 15k, was it left me 25k behind and hopefully the two players in the pot noticed that and maybe would think squeeze, and I would get a push from JJ or AK
