nope two others to act you fold as you also have nothing

Personally I'm loving the shove.

Adore my outs, have "fold credability" with a big blind special in the remaining players eyes and am happy with the perceived stop n go of the Sb. (Female logic at its best no doubt!)

Whats not to like? Assuming the others fold you're still in and even with another caller - it's a chance to triple up and make a stab at winning the darn thing.

i did this and gotten called by UTG who was raised by MP

sb had air
UTG had 88
MP 22 (set)

caught my ace on turn lost to a 3 on river

with the 88 and 7100 back would you have pushed over top of me or called and folded to the rereraiser with over 50% of your chips in the pot?

Absolutely hating it, but in that spot i probably fold the 88 after you shove - Thereby negating having to deal with a re raise. I will be bitching in my head and hating life - but gotta figure that some donk outdrew me and there's either an over pair /  set or flopped straight out...

Of course this all depends on whether i have reached / or negated my "fu" button - where i get all stubborn and think that people are trying to bully me - when they blatantly aren't.

Super UL on the re draw.

you have q4o

do you call/push/fold ?

 My first thought was why do you want to go all in here ? You get rid of your potential customers who you want if you hit your draw and you dont get fold equity because your opponent is already all in. The question is have you got odds to draw ?

Lets assume likely best scenario. You call, others fold and, sb doesnt have a 4 and if you hit a queen you win. Perhaps sb has something like J5?

You now have 11 outs - 4 aces, 4 sixes and 3 Queens - total 11 outs  with 2 cards paid for - 43%. You have to put another 2.1k into a pot that will be 7.4k. -28% - very good odds.

However he could have a 4 when it would be split pot if the draws come . If not depends then on his kicker. You could be winning already.   

So against 1 opponent you you a few ways of winning - If more than 1 you will probably need to hit your draw.

So I think all in discouraging others to come in. If you loose you still have 6 blinds left. But if others also call you hopefully still have 8 outs with 2 cards to come (32%), and if you hit you'll more than double up and be right back in it.

What he's saying I think is that you could be winning or losing against 1 or more opponents. You may or may not get a call if you shove but if you flat you may or may not get called or raised in which case you could be behind or winning.

So if you shove, call or fold you may win but may not depending on what the other's cards are and whether they shove, raise, call or fold.

Hope you are no longer lost.

Sorry for the confusion Ironside. Summary in final para. - imo all in shove.
