Pretty early on. SB is obvious donk, playing garbage oop. No real reads on anyone else yet.
Full Tilt Poker 2.25sng No Limit Holdem Tournament Blinds: t30/t60 8 players Converter Stack sizes: UTG: t2170 UTG+1: t820 MP1: t2735 MP2: t840 CO: t3265 Button: t1765 SB: t570 Hero: t1335 Pre-flop: (8 players) Hero is BB with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#cc0000">UTG raises to t210</font>, 3 folds, CO calls t210 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t300)</font>, Button folds, <font color="#cc0000">SB raises all-in t570</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero?? At this level is it OK to shove? I need help in this situation, I lean towards a fold, but is that too weak? |

I like shoving here, you are easily ahead of SBs range and ahead of UTG's and CO's as well. Also there is a ton of overlay, no way I'm folding here.

This is why I hate AK, it is just a drawing hand (no flaming I know it's still strong) and with that many people in you are certainly up against at least one PP and maybe two. While you discount SB is range is probably A rag and any pair, the UTG rasie would also suggest a pretty good hand since he is OOP with the big stacks still to go, the CO knowing UTG strength called so he probably feels good about his hand. I just don't think you isolate the SB which is really what you are hoping for with a shove (I don't think you really want a 4 way pot with AK).
I usually call and wait for the flop, which is probably the worst play and why I stink. My guess would be the experts say shove > fold > call. |

If youre better than your opponets folding isnt terrible. Especaily with a big raise from utg repping big strength. If you arent better than your 2.25 opponets (especially at endgame pushing) then push EVERY TIME.

Can a push here be considered +EV?
I really do not know.... I hate racing pp's this early in a sng. I do pretty well on the bubble for the most part, I am just trying to find out if the community thinks a fold here is weak. For what it's worth all my chips ended up in the middle PreFlop, so I don't agree or disagree, I just wanted some insight. |
