I'm not sure what range your BB would call with, but if it was me...and I was already ITM...and shortstacked....and getting 6:1 pot odds (has to call t1850 in main pot of t11k+)...I'm in with any pair, any suited connectors and suited 1 gappers too.

Really something else to consider which is better odds... that he got KK then next hand KK QQ AA AK AQ, or he's tilting. I say 90% of the time it's tilt or SS M play, and then you have odds to get it in there..

Joey- SB is inconsequential in the hand...but for arguments sake (in case I'm wrong [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] ):

SB has ~t35,000 playing standard TAG

His M is 3 and yours is about 5-6 so he could be pushing any two but in internet tournies 5-6 isnt absoultely terrible and one double up probly puts you ahead of the avg stack so you can wait here for a better hand. KQ looks pretty but like others said its much better to push it then call with it (for over half your stack).

I'm not entirely sure what I would do in the original hand although if you were sure he was shoving ~50% of hands I think kq is a shove.

As to what the bb should be calling here facing 2 all ins I'm pretty sure folding anything would be bad. It's not a bubble situation so cEV is fairly close to $EV. If MP is shoving 50% and button is reshoving with 10% then 32o is between 4-1 and 5-1 and you're getting odds of nearly 6-1. This doesn't mean that bb will always be calling with ATC but I'm fairly sure it would be correct to.

You need ~43% equity if BB folds so he'd have to be shoving about 88+,A9+,KT+. Any wider and it's a definite call, tighter and it's a fold.

Having thought about this hand a little longer I think that a shove is probably correct whether MP is good or tilting, which it sounds like he is.

Against a range of top 20% you're 49% when you only need 43% (assuming bb folds simplifies calculations and doesn't make a big difference I think). That's a pretty big edge to give up and obviously there's a decent chance he's shoving wider if he's tilting which makes it an even easier shove.
