Thought this was an interesting spot for JJ

[BlueEcho]

UTG+1 and I had been going at it right and left, stealing and restealing. I wasn't sure of his holdings but he has raised my blinds the last 3 orbits. He was annoyed with my short stack play a while earlier as well, for I pushed into his blind every chance I got [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]. Almost all of his raises to my blinds were 3x or bigger and I hadn't seen him min. raise the whole time. I've been waiting to actually push over him with a real hand because I have done so with some more modest holdings.

The Button had just been moved to table so no reads at all.
BB is still to act and has us covered.

Do any of these factors knock us off our go for the win and get all the chips we can strategy?

Already ITM (but not good money) there is 42 left out of 1200 in a low buy-in tourney.

i'm shoving this here, sure utg+1 might have a monster but [censored] it , you have JJ and a great squeeze opportunity w/ dead money in the pot.

Instashove.

Button isn't calling. UTG+1 may, especially if you've been playing pretty loose. If he senses a squeeze play, he may expand his calling range for this situation.

[Mr.Poker]

Instashove and it isnt close.

UTG+1 only has 32000 chips which makes any raise awkward from this stack size which could explain the min raise. Any raise more than this min raise is effectively an allin so it could be a monster but could as well be a weaker hand which he didnt feel comfortable open pushing with.

The fact you have him easily covered along with the button's dead money(button will not call shove) makes this a very easy shove. I really expect to see a massive range of hands from UTG+1, if he calls.

Pop to t22k.

Yeah, I don't mind this 3-way so much. UTG+1 shoves, Maybe Button flatcalls assuming... Repop second time around, trap 'em both.

Gamboooooool. Yeah. Why not?

id put him all in
