Definitely a shove with 7BBs Philli.

Do a good search for SAGE (Sit and Go Endgame) if you'd like a nice and simply chart for shove/fold poker when you reach HU in a SNG.

Geez, won't even help your neighbour!;)

How about this one? 1 table sng, likes min raising on button with wide range, earlier he did it with K6 and I called with K8 to get back up to almost even chips. I figured a ace was alright here, maybe not?

you have villains range here ..i used k6 suited, but if it was k6 offsuit then you can just make the slider wider:

his actual range might be a little different. more aces? more pairs? more suited? who knows but its a start:

[ATTACH]1007[/ATTACH]

We can feel like we have a strong enough hands vs his range here. Stove isn't the end all be all but its another piece of the puzzle. Also we are getting an ok price with pot odds because of the blinds and his only min raise.

Certainly we won't fold but the next question is do you 3bet or just call? Why?

if you 3bet and he 4 bet you.....would you get it in or fold?

Learn Nash or SAGE.

So from all the above, it's "still on the fence", very close situation which could have gone either way.

This particular opponent, fold.

philliivey;292602 wroteThis particular opponent, fold.

then i think thats a waste of a9s ....instead of 3betting maybe you should just call....

and i could be wrong here but its the kinda way you want to think about hands that are too good to fold but you can't call a 4bet....

betrthanphil

no 3bet folding cause only options are call or 3 bet shove.....3 bet shove is always the right answer here
