At this blind level, i'm shoving this preflop.


I'm not sure that this was correct. You are out of position, and your donkbet equates to the same thing as shoving preflop. At least c/r to get some more of his chips in if you're determined to shove.

I'd also push this one preflop though. Maybe if you had positon I'd stop n go

Thanks for your answers!
Maybe I should have shoved it preflop...

PS: Isn't a stop'n'go move defined as something you do out of position?


Ahh yes, you're right. Sorry, my bad :P Well if you believe you had added fold equity with a stop n go, then it's not a bad move. It prevent him from making a better hand on later streets. I'd still shove... but now I'm not sure if what I said earlier about it being not correct is accurate.

Either way, wp :)


I'd just shove it, but I don't see any problems with the way you played it :]

shove preflop

this way you only get called on flop that hands that beat you -- worse hands fold. You'l never get payed off vs. hands like AK that would go broke preflop

I doubt that a lot of players can fold AK here... ;)
However, I also prefer the push preflop. Against hands that beat you, you will go broke anyway and like this you just give worse hands the chance to get out or Ax hands the chance to go broke only if they hit their ace.
