CO: t1058 M = 26.45
Hero (BTN): t488 M = 12.20
SB: t478 M = 11.95
BB: t498 M = 12.45
UTG: t478 M = 11.95

Pre Flop: (t40) Hero is BTN with 9 :club: 9 :diamond:
2 folds, Hero raises to t43, 1 fold, BB raises to t66, Hero ?

BB unknown. Click back always sign of strength? Here I put him on 55+,A7s+,KJs+,QJs,A9o+,KQo and shoved. Maybe too wide? ?(

I don't play 6max hypers, but from my experience click raise isn't always a sign of strength. People do it with various holding because they saw it done on TV.

In this hand going broke with 99 is a bit loose imo. You have implied odds to hit your set and stack him off if you just flat his 3bet.

Yeh, I'd shove on the next level too, but he we're still over 18 true bbs so dunno. And by only set mining I'd loose a lot value from loose fish. :/ Overall I almost never set mine in hypers.

You can always have a hand reevaluated. I don't mind. All I was saying is that you don't have to push or fold in that spot. You can always flat.

I hate post flop decisions, that's why I play hypers after all.

I always try to make moves which I'm more or less sure of instead of max EV. Like here if I flat and board comes dry Qxx and villain donks and I'm lost again cause of no experience post flop.

Whereas while folding/pushing you just need to put villain on a correct range and save the time of post flop decision for another table. After all multitabling and volume is the key in (hyper) sngs.

Anyway my main question was about what that click back could mean and if the range I put him on is reasonable. So your original answer was fine, no need to reevaluate. :)

I actually missed how deep we are.

Flat > shove > fold imo

Ok then let's say we flat. I really get lost what should I do next. On the flop we got only roughly 2 pot bets behind. Let's say villain donks and flop has 1 overcard to 99, what do we do? And if there's 2 overcards? Or the villain checks and flop is KQx? I get really lost... :f_confused:

I might flat a flop c-bet if the overcard is a Ten or a Jack. Would fold otherwise. And as I said earlier, you can profitably call just for set value, even if you have to fold every time you miss.
