    Ok, here's a situation I found myself last night in an MTT. It folds around to me in the SB. I'm sitting on a short stack with less than 10bbs and an M of less than 4 with 224,054 chips, also probably 22 of 24 remaining. Villain here is a nit, but I've shoved on him 2-3 times already so he's not happy with me. He's not going to just call off half his stack without a hand though, I'm giving him a calling range of A9+, KT+, any pair.

    Is a shove right with any two cards?

    I'd shove any two cards here definitely regardless of my image (people that have railed me here have seen me push Q5 and actually double up). At this point in the tournament you have to take a lot of risks and either build up a decent stack to work with or get to the fucking rail, it's as simple as that.

    Ok thanks. I got berated by the BB after he called my shove of T6d. I saw it as, I can never give him a walk when theres a chance to add over 20% to my stack, so I have to shove.
