$6.50 AQ on bubble vs short stack shove and call
No converter wanted to work. Big stack seemed OK, caller not so, seemed a bit weak. This is probably an automatic fold, but was unsure at the time and made what should be the worst choice I could make. Opinions?
Seat 4: UTG (865) Seat 6: Button (3,865) Seat 7: Hero (2,380) Seat 8: BB (6,390) Hero posts the small blind of 250 BB posts the big blind of 500 The button is in seat #6 *** HOLE CARDS *** Dealt to Hero [Qs Ad] UTG raises to 865, and is all in Button calls 865 Hero?

Re: $6.50 AQ on bubble vs short stack shove and call
I'd just call (and of course call if the bb pushes). You are sorta short yourself and I don't mind everyone seeing the flop.

Re: $6.50 AQ on bubble vs short stack shove and call
calling, yuck !
Why would you ever want to give BB the feeling he can push over you (I would with a wide range, cuz there would be lots of dead money in the pot)? Only reason for calling here would be if BB was tight/passive and you knew for sure that he only pushes JJ+,AK over your call.

Re: $6.50 AQ on bubble vs short stack shove and call
holy is right, it's way too timid to call here..
shoving is the best with >1/3 of the pot being dead money very often it just kinda sux if shortie wins and we become the new shortie, but oh well

I'd rather take his 500 as dead money than be in a 60/40 situation for my stack OTB...

You are really just trying to lock up 3rd place and then trying to improve once you are ITM. So getting others to see the flop is a good thing for you. Are you really that worried about the shortstack winning and then the bigstack still beating you?
