Is this shove OK with 19 BB's left ? All the other players are tight and seem to have a good grasp of ICM ( as far as I can be the judge of that [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I prefer a normal raise here (t500), probably folding to a push from the SB (yes, I know he can exploit me here).

i'm not sure i understand the shove. i think raise to 500 and go from there. if everyone else is tight you're likely to pick it up anyway.

e: f,b.

Since they have high calling ranges, a push is an invitation to get busted out right ?

I think my problem lately is actually pushing to much.

[mmorpg]

Dont shove 20ish BBs like that. Raise to 500ish instead. If you are the chip leader it might be OK

[Joerii]

Because you have more fold equity then?

[misternils]

Have the same problem as you (pushing to much). Like previous speakers, I think a smaller raise here is the right choice. Then you can fold to a large reraise.

Just another question - you're four handed and have AJ, do you really want them all to fold? A normal raise might get called, but you still have a pretty strong hand and lots of chips relative to the blinds with only four people left. Why not see a flop?

With AJ i want them to fold. No hand that calls us here, makes fun to play against.

Could you re-phrase that ?
