I just shove no reason not to.

Re: $16-AKs, dumb spot
I'm not ecstatic about pushing this early, but it's definitely unexploitable, and I'd probably end up doing it. Against one or two limpers, I'd probably make a more traditional raise.

I raise to 180-200. If this had been 25/50 with that many limpers then I lean towards shoving.

Re: $16-AKs, dumb spot
i dont really want some smarty pants putting me on AK and calling my AI with a small pair here. why not just raise 180-210 and see a flop ( if anyone calls). that push is kind of screaming AK if you ask me. and its too early to enjoy flipping.

Re: $16-AKs, dumb spot
What speaks against shoving, is that there isn't much money to be earned if everyone does fold and you don't really want to get into coinflip situations on purpose here.
I like a more traditional raise, something like 200-220. Playing OOP sucks, but you have a strong hand, and should be happy to build a pot anyways. |

Re: $16-AKs, dumb spot
Shoving isn't bad, you get looked up by AJ+ or even worse very often in $16s. With that said I think you can get a lot more value with a raise pf.

Re: $16-AKs, dumb spot
Check or 200. I think shoving is pretty bad, although clearly +EV there are much more you can gain more by taking alternate line. I agree about shoving at 25/50.

Re: $16-AKs, dumb spot
By checking you...
Might bust someone with AJ, KQ, ect... post-flop Dont have to play the pot OOP with an awkward stack size and a hand that misses the flop 63% of the time I don't know if I like raising AI this early on. You pretty much risk getting busted trying to win t150 |
