Played it fine, nothing wrong with folding here. I don't stick half my chips in with 99 at this stage of the tourney.

Is it also fair to assume his range is heavily skewed towards AK/AQ as anyone with any sense would never play anything else this aggressively by 4-betting for half my stack.

Big raises like this always annoy me cos I assume they look weak, like 88s or something here perhaps, but they usually have something more than you'd expect, perhaps JJ here.

Also, I might be tempted to think he's raising here based on the previous hand but often this isn't necessarily true...

Completely disagree w you lot, stacks are deep, u have a good hand+position. by 3betting you might get 4b off the pot and be unable to continue. Just call.

So what would the plan be on the flop?

Are we calling if he shoves no matter what comes out?

Are we folding if he shoves and there's overcards?

Are we Shoving if he checks?

This hand interests me as I had similar in the DTD £300. I had 99 on the button but chose to limp expecting the BB to raise because he often did. As it happened the SB raised instead. I then reraised but he put in a very big 5 bet and I had to fold. I was then sick.

I couldn't find a call because I would've been set mining without the correct odds. I thought about the shove because his bet didn't look overly confident. Unfortunately I thought about it for so long it would probably made him confident to call with tens or jacks.

Oppo has raised to 1600. If we call that we're pretty much committed. Hence shove or fold I would've thought.
