Considering the reads you've given, jamming looks pretty viable despite it being a pretty big one.

Re: $2500+120 FTOPS v Bakes
 

if you're going to jam why not go 2444 and call shove, shove flop if he calls

i guess thats better if you have like 9k b/c he probably never thinks you're folding. you definitely can 3bet/fold 72o here though.

LFTV,

I agree with deeper stacks the nominal 3 bet is better than shove, but i think bakes is too smart to ever think we're not getting our stack in.

Re: $2500+120 FTOPS v Bakes
 

Here's why I didn't want to go and go:

Bakes knows we're never folding after 3betting to like 2200-2600 or whatever, so hes not going to randomly 4bshove something stupid.

Also, Bakes is probably too smart to make incorrect calls preflop or call preflop and make mistakes when we shove the flop.


I dunno, I think this spot w/ these stacksizes is pretty interesting.

i think i like jamming

Re: $2500+120 FTOPS v Bakes
 

super ez shove

folding seems dumb, and go-and-going seems really dumb. that is my rationale.

Re: $2500+120 FTOPS v Bakes
 

Shoving might be +EV not really sure, but getting in 23 bb's pre with AJo seems spewy for some reason.

Re: $2500+120 FTOPS v Bakes
 

Shoving's gotta be good. But, if Bakes expects you to 3-bet less than AI with huge hands and 3-bet shove hands like AJ, why don't you 3-bet/fold?

Re: $2500+120 FTOPS v Bakes
 

I dont like it, you got too many chips... fold is the only option imo. 6k I'd jam. You will probably (?) get AT+ 66+ before you're blinded down to 6k meanwhile you can still play decent tourney poker until that point.
