It`s not actually a squeeze play since there is no openraise and a call before you, just two limp. I would be a bit worried that opponents have not played really loose (in this situation by loose I mean limping or calling a lot) but then again, only 11 and 10 hands.I would definitely shove this. Either hero is getting folds or flipping against other limper with some dead money in the pot.

was happy with my HU play even tho I couldn't get a win ♠_cool:

I`m not so happy with that. Hero is playing some $0.27 tournament. No need to creative lines like this. Make life easier and 3bet small pre.

I think that flop hits pretty well to villains opening range too even though ranges are wider bvb.

e. And I know hero have overpair+gutshot but opponent will have some 2 pair hands so as played I would play this one postflop bit more cautious.

Cool thank you , will proceed with caution in future , guess I was ready to go all in no matter what flopped and my thought process was clouded by the fact I had AA lol.....was like Id won tourney before cards were dealt turn/river (Fish Moment)

Hows the MTT grind going ?
