BB has been fairly active but hasn't really shown down any stinkers. He's be very aggro post flop. It's a clear shove without shorty involved but since we aren't getting a free showdown I was lost on what to do. Calling seems extremely weak, raising is asking for a reshove by the BB, and shoving seems like overkill.

I definitely not think its a shove without MP1 in..

Re: 215r ISO spot against big stack BB
 

weird spot. With youre read I guess you could get away with a shove. Against a sane villain, I dont mind calling or raising and checking down. I guess you could make a decent case for all 3 plays.

Re: 215r ISO spot against big stack BB
 

i dont mind a shove as long as BB isnt stupid.

btw im not folding this... its either a raise or a push for me.

Re: 215r ISO spot against big stack BB
 

I think it is a shove with the 200 overlay.

Re: 215r ISO spot against big stack BB
 

Easy push. Getting 5:1 if you isolate. I like those odds.

Re: 215r ISO spot against big stack BB
 

Without the 200 from MP, it is an unexploitable push. So, with this overlay, seems like a clear push to me. Surely you're ahead of shorties range.

Re: 215r ISO spot against big stack BB
 

This is an obvious raise, and it is an obvious shove if the stack sizes don't suck so much. Whether I raise or shove is dependent on the villian.
