Hi everyone,

in this spot I have only ~6 BB left and have to pay the BB in the next hand. In addition the blinds will rise the next hand or the hand after the next. Would you shove here to keep your fold equity for future hands alive?

This is a pretty horrible spot, but I think I shove now as K3o is likely to be better than the hand you will get in the BB
Looks strong as well shoving UTG so might get some marginal hands to fold

It’s indeed a horrible spot, but without antes in game and so many players still in I would still fold K3o from UTG.

Cheers,

ICMizer with FGS says its a fold -0.34%, but it obviously doesnt know about the blinds rising soon, If I change the blinds to 100/200 its even worse at -0.43% I guess because there are other SS that are likely to gamble and call your shove.
Thing is, if you dont shove and you have to fold the BB & SB you will be down to around 2.5BB, I guess with no antes you can be a little more patient, just my style I'd rather shove and go out than blind down and have to go all in with an utter junk hand
