Default $12 KQo near the bubble

I was obviously hoping the bigger guns would stay out of this and maybe get a call from BB desperate to double up, certainly didn't expect/want two callers but that's why pushing OOP sucks.

Full Tilt Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t160 (5 handed) Hand History converter Courtesy of PokerZion.com

SB (t3910)
BB (t1725)
Hero (t1735)
MP (t3240)
Button (t2890)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t1735 (All-In)</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t2890 (All-In)</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls t1565 (All-In).

Flop: (t6430) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players, 3 all-in)</font>
.

Turn: (t6430) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players, 3 all-in)</font>

River: (t6430) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players, 3 all-in)</font>

this looks very marginal to me. W/o running it in sngpt, I would say it's a neg ev shove against most villain's ranges. I would fold pre utg.

I agree. Also, the BB nor anyone else is in desperate need of a double up here.

If he folded he'd have 1500 chips left, me on 1900, the rest above 2800. If my raise was folded to him, and he had A7o or K9o, he'd consider a call wouldn't he? Or are the blinds not enough to make him desperate here.

The blinds in relation to his stack are in no way making him *that* desperate here.

Why do you want a call from A7o?

I don't really hate it but there are too many people behind you to just open shove. I think in the future in this spot I dump it.
