Default Re: Top two facing heat

Shove because you have top 2. Why?

1.) Value. He'll call with worse.
2.) Protection. Your hand is strong but vulnerable.
3.) Position. You are OOP.
4.) Shoving is fun.
5.) You're not me so he won't have a set.

I agree with protection, but he flatted earlier with the NFD in position so do u think draws make up that big a part of his range? - if not then there isnt much to protect against (not like we have to worry about overcards really). As for value, what hands do u think hell call with that I beat? 96 is unlikely given pf and although 64 is prob in his pf range - is that enough to shove and hope for? (not to mention the times a nit will fold bottom 2 for a full stack - obviously not very often but I imagine some of the time). Im still not sure.

Overpairs that he flatted with make up a decent part of his range. A 15/12 can have TT+ for sure here, and he's not calling PF and raising on the flop with them to fold to a shove on this board.
