Default $114t Bubble- 66 OTB facing short AI 2nd in chips

CL in the BB is reasonable in that he isn't going to shove a hand that he isn't calling a shove with. Is it fine to flat this and fold if BB shoves? He's not going to take a flop. He just never does that.

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t400 with t25 antes (4 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

CO (t1330)
Hero (t3411)
SB (t2398)
BB (t6361)

Preflop: Hero is in Button with 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
<font color="red">CO raises to t1305 (All-in)</font>, Hero _________

if the bigstack finds out you flatcall not only with monster hands here, he will start shoving very loose, you will have to fold and he will get better than 1:3 on this pot.

i'd just fold.

sidenote: if you flatcall this the first time,
the thinking bigstack might give you credit for a monster, and that you actually want him to shove it in -
and will fold.

i push preflop. ug's range is huge. if the bb gets a hand and calls that is really not a problem.

I shove w/o thinking too much about it. Probably fold 55.

This looks like a pretty easy reshove. When bigstack calls he will likely crush both of you so you still money and you are defintley ahead of UTGs range.

You just need to beat 1 of them, so why not.

What would ppl do with KJs here?

Folding might the best play* but it figures to be close between the 3 options. As stated, calling is better then pushing but they are essentially the same if the BB plays &gt;10% of his hands.

* - Provided that the BB plays by ICM (i.e. calls the top 70% should you guys fold)
