I think its just bad luck villain2 wakes up with bullets.<br /><br />To the other commenters saying we're flipping aganst pairs he shoves with, yeah that's true but his range is more than 22+ and Ax+, he's going to have kings in there, suited connectors possibly IMOAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8809720867229558081.post-3630375846799154062009-06-08T11:05:59.057-04:002009-06-08T11:05:59.057-04:00Tough spot.

They have to be considered when jamming and it doesn't sound like you thought about them at all. Having one of them wake up with AA is a cooler, but you're also jamming with a drawing hand and not a lock. AQ against a pair is a dog, so you have to be willing to take the risk.Pokerwolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06087637119337918275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8809720867229558081.post-66184702053768666052009-06-06T23:43:40.718-04:002009-06-06T23:43:40.718-04:00I would probably muck AQo there.

Beside it being the hand of the devil and guaranteed to lose, here's the rest of my thinking:<br /><br />You are only ahead of his range of aces he'd play, you are statically on the losing side of the coin flip of all the pairs he'd also shove.<br /><br />With a stack larger then yours (and also large enough to swallow doubling you up and still have chips to play with) there is much risk in shoving a not quite premium hand there.<br /><br />Your stack size in relation to the shove also puts you at a significant short stack, should you lose this hand.<br /><br />Since this is a tournament, I'd fold and fight another day with a better hand.OhCaptainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09399011365659793142noreply@blogger.com
