Shove preflop here imo

[HamJam]

you need to make a plan for the hand when you make your first preflop decision. 350 is too small, it all too often leads to awkward situations exactly like what happened and this sucks, really bad. id either make it 400-450 or push.

if you make it 400-450 you should push any flop. the pot will be bigger, and your stack will be smaller, so you wont be risking as much with just A hi.

With 14 big blinds I'd either go all in preflp or raise the amount you did and automatically push on the flop.

With one limper and a stack that size, this is a fairly standard preflop push for me.

Put pressure on your opponents and make them make the tough decisions. By not pushing, you made the hand more difficult on yourself IMO.

Shove pf if youre shoving a lot and if the table has been tight. I am almost always shoving this pf.

don't hate your raise, I don't really love it either however.

Not shoving this flop is criminal. If you are not shoving the flop then you must be shoving preflop.
