    Default Would you have done this, short stacked, on the bubble?

    I'm kinda questioning my play here big time.

    $1.20 45 man SnG, Final Table, I was in 8th place. Top 7 get paid.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t600 (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    saw flop|saw showdown

    Hero (t3295)
    UTG+1 (t13757)
    MP1 (t3420)
    MP2 (t15203)
    CO (t6060)
    Button (t12300)
    SB (t6615)
    BB (t6850)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG with K, A.
    Hero raises to t2600, 2 folds, MP2 calls t2600, 4 folds.

    Flop: (t5550) 4, J, A (2 players)
    Hero bets t645 (All-In), MP2 calls t645.

    Turn: (t6840) 8 (2 players, 1 all-in)

    River: (t6840) 5 (2 players, 1 all-in)

    Final Pot: t6840

    Results in white below:
    Hero has Ks As (one pair, aces).
    MP2 has Jh JavaScript (three of a kind, jacks).
    Outcome: MP2 wins t6840.




    I don't know why it didn't put me all in preflop, I thought I moved the slider for all in. Guess I moved it and clicked the bet button too fast or something.


    The second short stack, MP1 stat's were 80/13%/3%/6.0, I didn't bank on him donking out his chips.


    Should I have played this any other way?




    Sad thing is, the villians stats were 94/62%/25%/1.2

    Shove preflop (you know though).

    As played shove flop, go broke, be happy.
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

    You have 5.5 Big blinds, and you are BB next... you did the right thing IMO (of course you mention you thought you shoved which is the right thing)

    Better to push with AK than get blinded away to nothing.

    Live like a tiger rather than die like a worm.
