Hello , villian is a reg with 18/14 over 2k hands. Due his stack i assume that his opening very wide.


if i choose chip ev in icmizer to calculate my shoving range , giving 24 % open to villian i get 100 % of hand i can profitable shove.. this is making sense? i think in this spot dont make sense consider icm but i think 100 % is too wide in this situation. Wondering what's the standard value we can put in min ev diff chips...

HERO????

Ill take this spot all day against a button open and hope for the double .

Edit Just realised your on the button but im still taking it on anyway

MP1 can probably minraise profitably with any two untill someone stands up to him.

If he's been doing this a lot, I'll snap shove
if he has done it a few times but not often, I'll still shove
if he hasn't done this before I'm probably folding

Yea this has to be a shove.

This is a play he's making with hands like JT, K9 and even worse. If he has a premium it's just a cooler - if He's got a baby ace you're still in okay shape

The upside of a fold is, we still have 7bb, that's not a lot, but we're not blinding out just yet either.
There's 3 smaller stacks at the table, so by folding here and waiting for a better opportunity, you're giving the smaller stacks more opportunity to bust and have you move up in the money.

I wouldn't let go of a good spot for this reason, but I'd let go of a doubtful spot (like this one), maybe.
If I've seen MP1 do this before I'm still shoving!
