the result should be irrelevant to the question....shirley?
correct. You are surely flatting with QQ to induce a light shove right from the guy last to act to give him over 2/1 his money and insta call when he shoves over the top of you.
Yes I would have thought that too. I think a shove with the 99s was rash ( call and check down if nobody's hits would have been my play). Its not just the £1000 jump, its surely the fact that by knocking a player out, your own chance of winning increases massively (ICM).
Folding the QQ was very tight. I think he thought only AA or KK would come over the top with the short stack all in. I still think you'd got to call thou.
If your capable of folding to a shove with QQ in that spot you might as well just shove straight off and takes any decisions away.
