Pre-Flop: (225, 8 players) pedrin is MP2 8♠ 8♣
2 folds, Zavien99anrK raises to 450, pedrin ????

Could be this a good spot to shove?Or it is too loose.What range can be good here to shove? AQs+,TT+ ?

The opponent is unknown, i've played only 10 hands with him(20/10 vpip/pfr - irrelevant for such small sample).

Its never good to shove against chip leader unless you have a really big hand.
I would say AKs, QQ+, maybe i'm a bit conservative but it can get ugly if your AQ goes up against AK, or 10's/J's up against bigger pocket, and even your 10's/J's vs AK/AQ is a coin flip and vice versa. Just remember its YOUR TOURNMENT LIFE on the line and not his.

Really depends how tight or loose the chip leader is but generally unless you have specific reads that you can use against him, i would stay away.

Its always easier to go against the other mid/shorter stacks in the game cause they be afraid of getting crippled.

Hi all,

This far from the money, 99+ AQ+ seems like a good range. Widen your range to 66+ AJ+ if you feel that he is folding particularly often.
