Default 11t KJo, BB, bubble

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t150/t300
4 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t1790
Button: t4430
SB: t5555
hero: t1725

Pre-flop: (4 players) hero is BB with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
2 folds, <font color="#cc0000">SB raises to t600</font>, <font color="#cc0000">hero ???</font>

Is this a standard push? villain looks like he's trying a min-raise steal. SNGPT can't calculate these kinds of situations... I'm short, I need to make a move... thoughts?

I think it depends on UTG and SB. If UTG is tight, you can probably fold here and just push the next hand. Or if SB is real tight....you could probably fold here.

On the other hand, if SB is pushing a wide range....and/or you don't feel you have much fold equity against UTG in the next couple hands.....taking your stand here as the short stack isn't a bad play.

If you fold this, you will not be opening another pot for the rest of the tournament because the CL is shoving any 2. Given both that and the fact that you're already in for 300, I think you have to shove this. One possible exception is that if villain never minraises. Then, and only then, might I hesitate.

Looks like a steal .. a call wouldn't be bad, right? If u hit something then play it very aggressively - if not, fold? U still have around 1k and 3 free rounds to wait for a Ax or some other pushable (all-in) hand.

Please correct me, it's just the way I would have played.
