Who is button? Any read?

I think this is like... always a push.

[/ QUOTE ]

But if we shove, wtf are they going to call with besides AA? A shove by us would look extremely strong. A read on button would definitely help.

[/ QUOTE ]

I don't know but also relevant, does Matt know who you are?

Also I don't know your typical UTG opening range which is certainly relevant as well, if Matt knows this.

Can the cold caller really only have AA? Couldn't he be playing JJ or QQ like this? Or he could just be bad.

[/ QUOTE ]
I assume gobbo is sarcastic and thinks this is an obvious push.

[/ QUOTE ]

I dunno if he was being sarcastic or not, but I think shoving would be bad. I know MattSuspect is good, so think he would fold everything but KK and AA. I dunno about the cold caller, but he would likely fold QQ too.

Call is definitely the best preflop play, and I'd be willing to go broke on a non ace high or queen high flop depending on the action.

[/ QUOTE ]

People fold QQ like ever? Seriously? I'm prolly shipping it, though i'll have to look at stack sizes again.

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, Matt is a good player, and I can't imagine a good player ever calling QQ here if he was utg+1 and betgo shoved. He can't put betgo on looser than QQ+ AK, which QQ is 1.5:1 dog against. Pot is only laying like 1.45:1 or something, but he also has to worry about the cold caller.

I agree we can't assume the cold caller would fold QQ, but it's not that unlikely. Also, this tournament generally plays pretty tight early on.

Why? He's folding the other QQ and AK? I think there is a tendency on this board to assign super tight calling ranges. Are we saying he's turbo mucking JJ and TT?

well im assuming villian knows us. whats our UTG range to him? not much and he is repping like JJ+ AK i dont know exactly. there is no way he calls a push with JJ or TT or he is terrible.

but if we are unknown to him pushing has more merit

I agree, but I think his raise size is very telling of KK+. Obviously you're crushed against that range. He's only calling with AA if you shove.
