blonde poker forum

Final 14 and the blinds are 30k/60k/5k. We're playing just short of 800k and find Aspades Js UTG.
Chips in play is around 9million with another ~200 pay jump at 13. The comp also has a deep-stack seat for top 8 meaning an extra 550 to the prize.
There's 12k up top so we're obviously in it to win it. The table is 7 handed and two people on the table have me covered, the big blind and the cut off, the rest have a mixture of 300k-700k. The bigger stacks have been playing pretty tight and we've blind stole our way to our stack, what's our open? Are we ever raise folding vs a big stack considering people aren't playing OOL?

We can jam profitably here, so yeah i would do that!

Good morning first of all, I will try and give my opinion even though I don't believe am as goog as u young people with all ur poker mind and hand analysis and ranges ect ;tk; I believe that with the blinds so big their is no way u can be folding such a strong hand Sven handed if ur in to win as u said. From 14 even down to 8 for the deepstack seat is a long way and u need to use the tight play of the other 2 big stacks in ur advantage to accumulate more chips. I would never raise to fold here because doing so and being on the blinds next that would mean u going to have to go all in within the next round and possible with much worst hands than AJss. Thanks :)up :)up ;boltpp;

I would jam!

Raise/decide

I'd be stealing a lot at this point and would include ajs in there too

Yeah in hindsight I much prefer this.
Our hands essentially ~6.3m so we've still got a stack we can min with (granted most live players don't think this way).
While I don't have a massive issue with my jam, a min does mean I can evaluate if a bigger stack and known 'nit' shoves, and  gets the same people to fold just as well as a shove does. Obv getting it in vs short stacks but means we have contingency if we get jammed on by a bigger stack who we know will have our range dominated.

How is the table playing in general? I like raise/ decide too until 4 people call me cos it's live

Jam

Not quite fist pump jamming although 13bbs more than happy. 7 handed also which has to be a consideration that weighs even more towards the Jam. A10o would be bottom of my range and the shiny betting discs would be shovelled without doubt.

Gratz on 13th place mate ul not to push on.

I wager them all.
