Default QTs on the button bubble play

tonight ( yes its 1:43 am here) i played a $20+2 S&G 180 people on pokerstars.


When there were 19 players remaining I had 8,3K chips left and the blinds were 300/600. (I was kinda shortstacked rank 14 or something.)

I had Qs Ts on the Button and it was folded to me.

what should I do here?

I raised it to 1800, SB folded and BB pushed all-in for 12K.

what should I do here?


ps I had no read on the guy yet.

You should've pushed from the button.

As played, a call would be +cEV but -$EV. So fold.

The raise is ok I think, fold to the push.

Raise is fine, fold the the push. (I usually make it 1600 becasue most people treat it the same)

There's also antes, which makes his M low enough to push. Knowing that it is the bubble, and that BB has a lot of chips, I would want to prevent him from restealing.

Kinda depends on the reads of the blinds. If they've been sorta tight I'll shove with QTs there most of the time.

With no read I don't blame anyone for shoving there.

After the guy re-shoves on you, I fold.
