Super Tues AK v. Premier

[DDBeast]

I think premier's a little on the nitty side. What do you think his range is calling out of the BB here?

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t1200 with t120 antes (7 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

Hero (t19396)
UTG+1 (t31639)

shove PF

range: pp and suited facecards

w/ the antes i just shove pre =/

I really dislike shoving preflop

I check behind now

i think in order to raise to 3k in this tournament from that position with AK, you have to be willing to also make this raise with a BelowAb0ve-like range of holdings. Otherwise your raise size is mega-exploitable.

I'm not "that guy" so I shove.

If your UTG range here is something like AJ+, 99+ I really don't see how it's that exploitable. Premier's range here is going to be a lot of pairs and maybe AT-AQ and KQ. Checking behind is not good on this flop.

I think shoving more than 15bbs here is exploitable. Shoving makes my hand pretty transparent.

[djk123]

shoving is stupid because you aren't shoving your big pairs.

I would check behind because we are getting check/raised a ton since this is a good flop for his range, which I'd say is something like 88+,AJs+,AQo+,KQs
