played the £75 freezeout yesterday at DTD,  75 players roughly 2k to the winner and 9 places paid.
had built my stack to 10k by the 2hour mark,very happy as im usually the "donk" out early lol.
after getting crippled by a donk shoving wit a flush draw for his stack on the turn and binking the
river im down to 3800 at 150-300.

so here goes, UTG (flush draw egit) limps, not worried hes been doing it alot. Labelled nit open
shoves for 7k and i look at  ....... so i go all in. BB passes AQ face up that makes me feel
much better. Nit shows  .

Can i find a fold here or am i just playing against a scared poker player??

yes, it's possible to fold here given the right circumstances

for example you could be in the toilet or at the bar when the hand is played

Most players probably instant call in this spot... personally i probably fold... I am probably racing at best and I would rather put my money in first in a better spot...

You are likely to wait a long time for a better spot than this.... You are most likely a big favourite here, sometimes racing and very occassionally a big dog.

So you have shortstacks range on aq+,qq+ here?

Even uber nits have a range of something like aj+, 77+ here with 3/4 bbs left. I have yet to meet anyone who would fold 10's here, even Tikay would have left scorch marks on the table here.

You won't find many better spots than this, tbh I think that whole phrase is horrible (not having a go at you personally, i see this every other thread on the 3 forums i read daily), just concentrate on what the best play is in the hand in question, instead of talking about mystical future better spots.

surely with a stack at 3800 and blinds at 150-300, im actually going to looking for a spot to race because of the slim chance
that i willl be in a situation where i have my opponent dominated with so little time left before i get to monkey shove
mode??
thanks for the opinions guys
