Default Re: $16 - KK, ace hits for a change

The SB calls so often when we shove & folds to the big RR when he isn't, so we do lose a lot of value by not shoving. If he called the RR, he is calling the shove.

Easy to say after the hand is done.
I am still pretty sure donks call a raise easier when they have some money in the pot than a shove for their whole stack.

I like shoving not because I fear the ace but because most of the time they will miss the flop after calling your raise and get away from some hands that they would have called your shove with, while calling if they hit (which will usually be when they hit an A).
Also if they aren't total retards they will call the shove more often anyway because everybody sees it as a "squeeze", but who knows, most people are bad.
