Re: Two consecutive hands in the end of a tourney - opinions please
I think both hands are shoves.
#1 - You only have 10 BB's and a good hand. The UTG AI can have ATC, so that's easy. The caller might have a big hand (trapping with AA or KK), but he might have anything because he is a big stack. Your chip position is bad, and there is a lot of dead money in the pot if you can get the caller to fold. I think you stack up well against both their ranges, and you need chips badly - shove. Unless you make it to 6th+ (really top 3), the money is not worth folding your way to a higher positions. Shove to isolate. I wish you hadn't posted the result. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
#2 - shove PF or flat-call - anything else is weird and suspicious with your stack. And bet the flop - checking is just way too suspicious - he expects you to shove no matter what you have. Don't disappoint him.
