I think I push here vs 40bb or 60bb. If its correct to 3b for value then we arenot getting away from this board.

He has only potsz left with 60bb stack so he wont be folding that much anyway, imo.

Pushing forces the biggest mistake if he calls with overs. And we dont even mind him folding overs on the flop since we take it down without risk.

Why do you make it so big preflop?
Against the fish it can be ok, but imo vs MPs range it's not optimal as we invest too much money.
I'd make it 14-15bb.

As played I'd also just shove vs either a 40BB or a 60BB stack.
Against 40BB we only have 20BB left so obv we can't do anything else.
Vs the 60BB stack we have around potsize left, if we bet any amount other than all in, the stacksizes on the turn will be awkward, therefore the small bet looks suspicious (at least to me) and even stronger than a shove.


Sorry for the long delay with the hand evaluations, I'm on vacation right now and had a tough fight for internet. It seems to be working now, so hopefully there won't be any more delays.
