    i like your play, no reason to push, only better handds are calling us..i wouldnt play it any other way...

    i fold with the intent of the big blind going home soon, we have a nice stack and it would be a shame to lose it to aq or ak

    LOL

    I looked back at your post twice saying to myself: he did push!! Yes he did...

    That said I like the push too. IMHO you can make AQ-99 and less lay it down here considering the other opponent is at 131K.

    That said in the hands that could call you you are a huge dog against most of them. Only TT would be a split.

    But I still push!

    KJ

    I push, he calls, AQ vs. AJ obv. No help I'm out in 3rd gg. I'm dissapointed because I know I would of ripped either of these guys apart heads up. I suppose if I fold or call this I'm a pussy playing for 2nd. I'll take the $500 though.

    Aj is on the top of my list for all time gay hands.

    I actually thought this guy would fold AQ here.

    He SHOULD'VE folded AQ here, well, maybe not against you. Because you said he's been laying down to your re-steals.

    I like the play. Your stacks are almost identical and he should only be calling with AA/KK/QQ/JJ/AK
