shove preflop

Your stack is way way too short to limp reraise here. Just open shove here, they expect you to be doing this with a pretty wide range and will call you light. also there is like 12k in the pot which is over 1/4th your chips.

ok, but if i shove most of the time i get only blinds here .
But i need double my stack despite of some risk. right ? Because if i haven't healthy stack i cant steal blinds and never win tournaments .

Who said you need a healthy stack to steal blinds?
