    Default Tell me if I played this right.

    Yes I know this is probably a basic play, but tell me what you think, and if you do the same thing given the stacks and position. Thanks!

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (7 handed) Hand History converter Courtesy of Poker coaching - Get an online poker lesson - texas holdem strategy for real poker

    Thndrlight (t2910)
    UTG (t3895)
    MP1 (t3555)
    MP2 (t2945)
    CO (t1650)
    Button (t1420)
    SB (t3190)

    Preflop: Thndrlight is BB with , .
    1 fold, MP1 calls t200, 2 folds, Button calls t200, 1 fold, Thndrlight raises to t3110, MP1 folds, Button folds.

    Final Pot: t3610

    With poor position, I just though shoving against those stacks at this point made the most sense, maybe it didn't. Thats why I post here. For some reason, these are the exact hands that get me into trouble the most in tourneys.

    Yes, I only shoved because I was in the bb. I check that to many times with the limpers and get punished.
