$40/$80 No-Limit Hold'em (8 handed)

Known players:
[tg]SB$1405.00:///////;BB (Hero)$1848.00:///////;UTG2$1173.00:///////;MP1$1575.00:///////;MP2$1925.00:///////;MP3$1350.00:///////;CO$2955.00:///////;BU$1269.00:///////;[/tg]

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q:h, A:h.
UTG2 calls $80.00, MP1 folds, MP2 calls $80.00, MP3 folds, CO calls $80.00, BU folds, SB calls $40.00, Hero raises to $1,848.00, UTG2 calls $1,093.00(All-In), 3 folds, 2 folds, SB folds.

Flop: ($3261) 3:h, T:c, T:s (2 players)

Turn: ($3261) 4:d (2 players)

River: ($3261) T:h (2 players)

Final Pot: $3261.

shoving the only reasonable option? std raise would be huge compared to my stack especially when theres a great chance of being oop which sucks a lot with such a huge pot (i can hardly cbet without commiting myself). checking seems to be a bit too weak and loosing value. Am i right?

i dont think checking is horrible. its suited so it will play decent multi-way.

im not a fan of just shipping 23 eff blinds . id rather raise to 600 and ship any flop.


Your main concern is UTG2, who has only 14BB.
Against him risk/reward is ~1:3.
Against the others is about 1:5.

I like pushing better, although I agree pushing 23BB is not a standart thing.
