If BB or btn wakes up with a hand you have just butchered your chip lead. I mean there is 3400 in the middle you can easily raise 2 times and steal those chips back if you do get pushed on by the SB.
I think BTN & BB must fold when we shove here no?
edit: ya i messed up the stack sizes there. looks like this is a fold unless everyone is super nitty
Sorry, havent been paying attention.
I like you better this way. NH.
no ...sb will not be calling likely...very tight range since in a 7 dollar tourney he is waiting for a hand....or he is smart to know he has to call some what tighter....
i know how often this happens.....and i don't feel like its enough....
as long as by raising we mean shoving or at least rasise calling..because we cannot likely raise and fold for the rest of the tourny...
thx for the input don't hear alot from you and i appreciate different points of view!!!!!!!!!!!
i don't believe thats an option....as we have odds to call any ones shove on our min raise...prob even on a limp....

but wait...when was i a super nit .....???
how does a non exploitable jam hand become a fold when we know that the other players are calling way tighter?
nonetheless thx
but at 66+ ATo+ A9s+
sb with 66 ATo+ A9s
BB 55+ ATo+ A9s+
That means if you're shoving 109o, your opponents calling range is Ax+, Kx+, Qx+, Jx+, 109s/109o, 66+...and some 55 and 44...depending on the actual suit.
Good luck w/ 3 players left to act that none of them can beat 109o.
what i thought an unexploitable shove was is when you turn your 'range' face up and your oppenent cannot come up with a 'calling range' that gains off of us..
Like I said before, this is probably a +chipEV shove...given that you have enough equity when called...you're not that deep stacked and such....but this totally ignores payout structures...and the famous three letters icm.
and if we shove 87s....?
Unexploitable plays doesn't mean it's the best way to play the hand. No one in their right mind is open shoving aces for 1000 bbs.
Unexploitable plays are based on math...determined by EV.
Your EV is determined by these factors:
A) How much you win when you shove and no one calls
How often do the players left to act pick up a better hand
C) How much you risk, when called
D) How much equity does your actual hand have vs the range of hands that would call you knowing it's ahead.
One way to think about it...is that whenever there's dead money in the pot (blinds, antes, or even if someone raises) and you shove, you can do an EV calculation based on the effective stacks (how can you win if called, how much you risk when lose), % of times player calls with a better hand, your equity vs those hand ranges.
The term unexploitable here refers to the fact when you shove a particular hand at a certain stack depth, your opponent won't pick up hands enough times to compensate for the dead money given w/ your equity when called.
nash was down for the last few days...youre right its not....the unexploitable range is 31 percent ...t9o come in at about 35%....not sure if im saying that right....
