BB ($30)
Hero ($58.50)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $2</font>, MP calls $2, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls $2, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to $8</font>, <font color="#CC3333"> Hero goes all-in??

I think it's fine considering any reasonable 4bet is going to be over half your stack.

It's not bad, but you're in position here and he's a donk. I prefer just calling with your premium hand and playing poker on the flop, I'm more inclined to do this move when I'm out of position.

If there weren't 2 others in the hand then I think a call's okay however if you call here the other two are likely to come along. Plus, knowing villain 3bets light and considering that this is a very good spot for him to squeeze I think shoving's the best.

Whoops, I didn't even notice MP or the button. I agree with everything you just said.

I think calling is really awkward considering since BB has only 22 dollar left in his stack and the pot will be 20 on the flop. That means he's committed. Since he still has a wide range, I'd prefer shoving.

I would prob make it like 22 intending on calling a shove. I would also bluff against this player taking this same line

Maybe a call if HU if you want. I like a shove better than a ~half stack 4bet for sure as played.
