I don't even want to talk about how my stack got so low, tournaments are so rigged!

The guy who opened the pot here is a fairly conservative/solid player from what I've seen, although that was only 1 hand. He flat called an EP raise from EP with QQ and checked down an A high board.

Is this shove terrible? I was still steaming a bit from every other tournament I'd played last night, every one was sick!

Final Pot:

Line was fine there. You're low enough as it is, and you probably wont see a better hand before you blind out.

Gotta push those 9's there..hope for one of the others to fold. You're probably a huge dog or a coinflip, but you have to push there.

99 + low M = a push in any situation. imo.

Wouldn't we rather push much weaker hands as the first one in?

how close are we to the money?

i dunno, im folding only because UTG has a monster stack. if he plays that conservative we are dead to a coinflip at BEST. obv you know if he limped or it was open to you in the CO its an instant shove, but when a conservative UTG, deep stack raises, and im sitting with 99 and not very many chips, im gonna fold it. (not to mention he is almost guaranteed to call your shove getting that price)

K, cheers mate


Any others have thoughts?

TA? Bag? Seany?

to me, this would be the correct answer.

UTG is a conservative/solid player and hes obv gonna call so if ur happy to be at very best a coinflip, id push....otherwise, id wait.
