Default Re: $4 180 AQs oop

[ QUOTE ]
personally I never shove this because I am not afraid of flops or playing people post flop... so I am fine with how you played this... and with effective stacks a re-raise is awkward and a shove is a huge overbet that is preety massively exploitable athough probably not recognizable as such by the majority of tournament players...

The pot is 1100!! That is more than a third of your stack!! A shove is not an overbet at all!! It's not at all exploitable!! Most of the time, there's a reason why super standard things are super standard.
Now, if we had twice as many chips, then we'd have an awkward stack size where a shove would be a bit of an overbet, but a normal raise (with 1 caller & OOP, standard deep stacked is) to 5x (2000) would pretty much commit us (getting just about 2:1 if someone shoved on us). Then we can consider calling & seeing a flop may be the most +EV line.
