Dealt to Hero Q♦ 9♦

fold, fold, BTN raises to $800, fold, fold

BTN wins $1,000

BU is a sick good player, probably one of the biggest winners on these stakes.

Feels like a good spot to abuse his raise by shoving over him.

Does he normally raise here instead of shoving? In theory this is very good spot for you to 3/bet shove.

Unless he knows you know it

i would be VERY suspicious of his MR here. hes min-raising with a 10bb stack into a 6bb stack and a good reg. smells like a trap to me. if he had a 5k+ stack id snap shove every time.


This is essentially the bubble. There aren't that many hands the second stack would want to induce action against the chip leader, but there are a lot of hands he might want to raise with the intention of calling against the short stack, and folding against the chip leader.

Technically the BTN has more than 10 big blinds, if only by 60 chips, and some people think that makes a difference.

So, I don't think I could resist shoving a suited, somewhat connected hand.
