this is so unnecessary.

just shove 99+, AQ here.

[Fammy]

I agree with Kool Aid.

Push here. If he folds, great, you have increased your stack by ~33%, if he calls, you are most likely WAY ahead...what more can you ask for?

If you did just call it then the flop if obv fine

Because you can win two different ways instead of just one.

If you push, villain might fold and you win the pot without a showdown. You most likely have best hand here, and with 1240 chips its not even a question you push here.

Just meant you have two different ways to win the hand. With or without a showdown. Its the best play and its not even close.

[Pudge714]

I would like this a lot more in 25/50.

Surely the correct play would have been to just re-raise all in PF? He'll almost certainly call you, and you'll get more value out your Kings at that point than you would if you let him see a flop because of the chance that the flop might scare the villain off.
