Don't look at the buy in but try to help me with this spot as this will be getting in all kind of bubble situations on all limits.

I apologize because i can't provide the right hand history because i played from other computer but it's 99% this:

position/stack/hand/limit!
hand1:
CO(hero) 4000 JJ 200/100/25
BU 4300
SB 3300
BB 1600

CO 1500
BU(herO) 4350 AQ 200/100/25
SB 4100
BB 3000

CO 3300
BU 1500
SB(hero) 4300 KQs 400/100/50
BB 4000

These are more or less tha hands like 90% the same(only chip stacks can be a little bit wrong with +/- 100 chips)

Is it better to raise/fold these hands and raise/call versus the shortest stack?

note: My opponents were really TIGHT.

If your opponents are RRRREALLY tight then raising all those hands is profitable, cause they gonna fold 90% of the time:

JJ no-brainer raise call

AQ if he pushes you can call, if he fold you raise against the blinds.

KQs kinda close, if you say they are tight but you can forget about tight-loose when he got under 4BB, he pushes anything that got a chance, so clear call/overpush.

Remember this is like rock-scissors-paper game, if your opponents are tight you may loosen up, if they're loose you tight the button and let em screw each other.

where is the point in raise/call with AQ/JJ when they are tight ? I don't see them reraising me with anything that is really worst than this range? And in all situations the short stack is a bit isolated as he can only profit from my call/push if I win/lose.But it's more about losing because if I lose i'm out.

Hi all,

I would raise to 450 in the first hand, call a shove by BB and probably fold to everyone else. Given the stack setups, raise/calling is too big of a mistake unless they are very very very loose. I would raise to 500 if they liked to call preflop a LOT.

I would minraise hand 2 against most opponents first in. Again, I would only raise more if they called preflop a lot. Fold to an all-in. If he pushed preflop I would push over the top as once you call you can't fold to another shove, and yet you don't want to induce a hand like 99 or TT to come along for the ride.

Last hand just push preflop first in. If BU shoved in front of you, I would re-isolate. If CO pushed I would snapfold
