Hero ?


I felt a little weak carrying AJ and was more worried about what the other 3 players were planning on doing. I folded, but was wondering what do you all do here? any thoughts?

[FoolyCooly]

I would shove in a quasi-isolation play. I figure to be ahead of villain's range.

[TreyWilly]

I push very quickly.

UTG can have any two cards here, and has more than likely settled on a better-than-average hand before he gets destroyed by the blinds. In most cases, you are a big favorite, and you don't want anyone else in the pot.

I'm probably pushing with 11bbs here, even if the shorty isn't all in. Anyone else?

[Shillx]

Gotta shove. Too much hand against the top ~35%

[PTB]

push here, villan is pushing wide and you have a good hand

[Cixelsyd23]

I think this is a push too

Like I said, I think it's a push

[sence25]

pushing both is fine i guess.
see, they are sooted.

[phillitc]

I think the first one is definately a push with good EV before the bubble. The second can be a push, but its rather marginal EV gain.
