Make your standard raise (2.5-3BBs), call SB's shove, fold to BBs shove.

This is good line and will next time probably do this . This is probably more +cEV as well.


There are 2xBB in the pot before any action occurs. The blinds both have M of just around 4.5 and I am about 10. The blind are eating my stack. It's +cEV to push all-in pf and by committing myself to the pot I effectively do this. I wanted to simplify my play in that spot.

However of the All-in pot against BB I have an equity of 10,3BBs, and thus losing only 4,3 BBs for each time the blinds push. If the blinds only push 10% of their starting hands, I get to steal 8 BBs as opposed to losing 4,3BBs.

With my chip stack I could have bet-folded to BB's push and would have had plenty of chips left. If we have had 6-7 players then bet-folding would have been a very easy option, but at this point of the tournament we had been at 11-12 players point for a LONG time and no one really wanted to let the final table get going.
