I am not very familiar with 18 man tourneys, but I would push here and
a bit wider also. Would wait to see what Chenny has to say

This would be fold for me in 3.5$ game. Nash shove range probably include KTs, but it also assume that villains know how to fold many nice looking hands. I think villains are calling bit too wide.

A fine shove from the lo-jack. It's a spot that may not be quite +$ev, but being almost the shortest, it's a spot we can get it in on with a snippet of cev in our reasoning.

Hi all,

I take no -$EV spots or marginal $EV spots here given that we're still 10bb deep. I fold here and push from CO and HJ. I push this if antes were in play, however.
