nl25, JJ vs a shorstack donk shove
 

Villain's first hand at the table (notice he posted oop, checked and then overcalled). I never know what to do against shorties like this. I feel like he'd shove any pocket pair and maybe some other junk, but i never really know. how often is this anything other than Qx?

I might raise more pre flop, to like $4.5 which would make the call easier if villian still over calls.

As played i would probably still call, were getting about 2.5-1 and any pair is in his range here.

I min-raise here a lot.

3.5 is perfect preflop.

Instacall.

1) don't advice people to minraise .. EVER
2) how are you going to reraise someone who just shoved all-in?
3) explain the use of your advice. What would a minraise accomplish even if he had money behind?

You give odds to call like almost anytime and I don't really see what information you'll get out of it if you minraise here

Re: nl25, JJ vs a shorstack donk shove
 

He cant min raise anyway coz the player is all in and they are HU?

Also never min raise.

Re: nl25, JJ vs a shorstack donk shove
 

I stoved the range i put him on which was [22+, Qt+] and it's basically a flip (47:53) so i did have the right odds to call. Hell my range might even be a little too tight. Just wanted to see what others thought

I must be out of the loop on this minraise business, but i'm assuming it's some kind of troll.
