Awful play or good shove at this point??

[zizazziza]

I dont understand the point of the shove?
Are there any hands that will call you that dont have you beat? I think a c/r if he bets smallish is better than just open-shoving. I dont think its an awful play. You (unfortunetly) have an awkward stack and thus you can't really shove pf or really make a standard raise. I think you can open-shove pf or just make a std raise. I mean I dont think you can really play this hand poorly. I'm not a fan of shoving the flop tho. I would rather c/r or get it in on the turn so that worse hands might put some money in.

I think you played it fine; ziza you are shoving flop if you whiff here right so I think you do here regardless of the [censored] Ace.

[zizazziza]

am i shoving if i whiff?
I mean what if i had the A? would I still be shoving there?
I mean I think you can get a call from a 5 here, but you are ALWAYS getting called by an A here.

[dashman]

Well I shoved the flop for numerous reasons.
1. I think he would RR me with almost any A, mid PP and up and possibly any two face cards.
2. I kinda wanted it to look like a blocker and maybe he would call with worse cards, IE mid pair/ or even maybe med. PP.

I agree that I am at a very awkward chip count, which I think led to my shove.

[woodguy]

Your shove folds all hands that you beat, and he's not folding an A.

If you are not folding, check raise it and try to get chips from a worse hand.
