Title: BB vs SB situations 16-20 blinds deep: Shove or fold over 2.2x open? Post by: rfgqqabc on December 28, 2013, 07:18:13 AM [xpost from 2+2 HSMTT]
Everyone runs into this situation quite frequently and I don't think it's gotten an adequate amount of discussion. I'll make up a scenario and give a few possible holdings. We are pre-antes in a random $109 freezeout. The SB (a random mediocre reg) opens to 2.2x, 19 blinds effective, and you are in the BB. Do you shove, call, or fold when you hold: (a) KJo (b) K9o (c) Q7s (d) 86s (e) 44 (f) A8o I wouldn't really give much thought to folding any of these hands. And while I'm sure that shoving a hand like KJo is profitable, I wonder if flatting is more profitable. Anyone want to take a stab at this complicated problem? You can address just one of the hands if it's too much to discuss all four (6, i added two). Title: Re: BB vs SB situations 16-20 blinds deep: Shove or fold over 2.2x open? Post by: PathFinder on December 28, 2013, 08:08:20 AM (a) KJo - just call, flops well and it's pre-ante.
(b) K9o - there's room to 3bet fold this hand so would 3bet not shove. Blocker helps this. (c) Q7s - Same as K9 (d) 86s - probably just fold don't hate a call as you can semi bluff a lot of flops. (e) 44 - Shove>3bet call>call>3bet fold (f) A8o - think there's an argument for everything bar folding. Because its pre-ante I believe 3betting can be used.

Think folding anÅ· of the others would be pretty bad.

1) k8o 2) 74s 3) ato 4) 88 5) q6s Would be better to discuss Rest just have way too good playability/flop so well to wnt to consider folding imo Title: Re: BB vs SB situations 16-20 blinds deep: Shove or fold over 2.2x open? Post by: Pinchop73 on December 28, 2013, 12:20:10 PM Surely we need to know the mediocre regs' perception of us/history with us? Calling/folding/betting ranges will be skewed enormously depending on if we are viewed as a supernit or a spewmonkey
