9 max SnG 0.5$ hands ATo fush/fold

Pretty marginal. Can't get what his minraise mean. What such ugly raises mean most of the time mean at this limits? I think I just have to flip a coin and do what it says next time.

This is indeed marginal without any reads on him. If he’s min raising/folding before with a around 10bb stack it could be a profitable shove. Without this info it could be a tell of a trap and then is a fold good I think.

I would do it and you are also in front against the calling range of the BB. Off course you are 3rd in chips, but you are only slight in front with the other 2 short stacks.
