£15 live tourney - 24 runners - around 17/18 left, avg stack ~12k I have 6.5k, blinds at 300/600, break after this hand... I raise UTG to 1600 with   . I had lost >4k with a badly timed 3 bet, so I am looking to play a big pot to make back some losses, KQ is a monster compared to the   / As  I've seen shown down at this table... my player to left has called every hand and folded every flop bet so I feel 1600 is a good price to get him in, the rest seem smart enough to fold a suspcisously small raise from UTG. The station calls and BB feels priced in for the extra 1000. In hindsight, was the raise too small? Junky flop    Am I wrong to fire in 2000 here? I know the player to left is giving up on every flop he doesn't connect with and he does eventually tank fold (probably Ace High). The BB instashoves. I don't fancy waiting 30 minutes in the break to come back with 3k for 400/800....is it correct to call here every time regardless? |

You don't have enough chips to make this raise UTG. I prefer shoving to raising, but I prefer folding to shoving.

Yeah as above, prefer to wait a round and if I still have no hands shove ATC for 8 bigs from the button, cut off. Get snapped by AQ and bink it in his eye.

Fold, remove the 3k chips from the table, spin them up on the roulette table or meet Men the Master Nguyen in the toilets. Come back with 20k after the break.
Or you could shove or fold pre, it is pretty close either way without antes.

The line I usually take at the Nash is to mangle the hand and then walk home.

I think I just shove in future (I can't find a fold with KQs at this table) it probably gets through enough there,....then I can bust out with aces 1st hand after break....  |

Basing your decision on the fact that the break is just coming up is really bad poker.
If the breaks are so long that they affect your decisions don't play the tournament.
As for the hand just pass pre. Shove some random shit from late position when you get chance. If the table is right and you think people will lay down A9, A10 or even AJ then shove UTG is fine.

disagree Matt- you'd be surprised how much external factors play a part in live poker. People just wanna go for a fag/toilet/get a drink and will rarely defend pre flop or want to play a long pot post. |

I considered that tbh...in fact the dealer even egged on the first caller to fold when I bet the flop (!!!) cos he wanted to get away for his break, if the BB could have complied instead of shoving 86o I'd have some chips to make it worthwhile playing after the break  |
