$30 Sit-n-Go. After flopping a set early, running into a flush and getting away as cheaply as possible (villain checked the river, holding the nuts, and I checked behind), I'm shortstacked and card dead for most of this event. Player to my immediate right has built a stack and is playing aggressively, raising whenever he's first to the pot and in mid-to-late position. The times he's been looked up, his holdings have been, well, fair at best.
Down to ~350 chips at 50/100, I double up three times and get back into things. When we get to the bubble and the hand in question, here are the stack sizes.
UTG: 95 (yes, ninety-five)
Button: ~3000
SB: ~ 6900
BB (me): ~3500
UTG and Button fold. SB shoves. I look down at QQ.
In a normal situation, this is a super-easy call. He's overshoved several times already, and I feel it's quite likely I'm ahead here.
Shove or Fold?
Isn't this just a question of your goals - i.e. are you trying to cash first, then trying to win, or are you trying to win and willing to take this opportunity to double up and take the chip lead?
Ugh.
ReplyDeleteFold then throw up.
