Depends on how I think he views me- but generally for me 3b calling is better than shoving and I can/do have a 3b folding range here so I'm more balanced than most- same for calling pre- I call a wider range here than 95% of regs, whether this is good or bad is debatable but if for example I'd been flatting pre a load then I'd have a range where flatting TT here wouldn't be face up, and for sure I could have Aces,Kings in same spot-

Before anyone does the maths and says shoving is not exploitable I'd add that's because we have been dealt a premium with a shallow stack and a raise in front- +ev doesn't mean the same as non exploitable

Is this some kind of hilarious practical joke?

Shoving seems like it could be slight spew to me. He won't call off 22 bigs with any range that has us in decent shape and i don't really feel like there's any strong reasoning for him to be light here too often.

Very wrong.

Shove.

I would like to add that I agree with saying that it's best to do what's consistent with your perceived image and balancing in these tournaments. I always shove here because I'm pretty sure most regs won't think that I have a 3bet fold range since I balance by just reshoving 14-25bbs with a pretty balanced range in these reggier tourneys. But if you have a 3bet/fold range then you should definitely 3bet/call.

Its not a spot i often (ever) fold in, I just (cue excuses) had no timebank because by computers been a c*nt lately, seen he had been super tight, and just had a gut feeling. I know shoving or 3b/calling is the right play, and thats why i posted it to see which of these people take.

Sometimes i go with my gut, and often it's right. I know I shouldn't be folding here vs most opponents.

Just remember next time i 3bet you with 20 bb's my range is JJ+ and AK yea?
