Hi guys,
After a 4 month break from poker I'm back to the grind and trying to dust the rust off and wanted opinions on 3 spots that I encountered ITM last night. 6 people get paid in these.
On a final note Weird76 basically lost function of his fold button once he got a hold of a pwning stack.

HAND#1 (BUBBLE)

1 - shove
2 - fold probably, depends on payouts
3 - no idea, shoving is fine I guess if weird is abusing you

#1, relatively easy shove.
#2, is this the FT? If so, ICM dictates folding everything except AA I would think.
#3, ICM shove!

1- shove you have 8s and he might fold some random stuff that you are flipping against.

2 I would have to say shove. You have JJ with less than 10bbs and villain has loose pf stats.

3- I prob shove just cuz there are 2 shorties, if they were deeper I would raise/call.

Edit:I didn't realize in hand 2 that you are the 2nd chiplead at the FT and a bunch of guys are super short. I prob fold, unfortunately.

THIS

Spot 1 seems pretty standard. Size seems to suggest a shove

it might be fold/fold/shove but that's dependent on how big the minimum cash is in these things and the ensuing payout levels.

FWIW the payout structure for these is:
38%, 25%, 16%, 10%, 6%, 5% that is $410, $270, $173, $108, $65, $54
