Hey everyone - I'm looking at a hand with genuinely awful results thinking that I made an amazing move, or a terrible mistake





At the time I looked up UTG+1's shoving range, and used that to base my reasoning on - I'm epically ahead of most of it. MP1 is claiming to be ahead of it too, but his shove looks like a standard isolation shove.

UTG has 8bb, MP1 has 13bb, and there is a little over 2bb on the table. I have 15bb and it's going to cost me 13bb to potentially win 26bb - I'm being paid even money for what I believe is a 1:3 shot at the pot, so I make the call.

In hindsight I suspect my reasoning is great, if I have a huge stack. On account of my limited stack it could be polite described as high-variance (or perhaps more honestly described as insane :P)

Is my reasoning sound? Or totally bats**t crazy? And, if this would be a reasonable move with a deep-stack, how deep does the stack need to be?

i think it's a good call, AJs AQo 88 looks fine to me in this spot

He shouldn't really flat anything and give a tactical choice and/or reads to later players. He likes his hand despite the early position shove and number of players to act. Imho you were lucky to have two live cards this time.

readless its a fold, we need reads/stats that either or both are loose to call this

Nash UTG+1 push 21.3%, 22+ A2s+ A9o+ K9s+ KTo+ Q9s+ QJo J9s+ T8s+ 98s

Nash UTG+3 call 10.1%, 44+ A9s+ ATo+

Nash BB overcall 6%, 77+ AQs+ AQo+

unknowns are never as wide as Nash so our overcall range must tighten even more

I would fold, 13bb isn't great but still you're average stack. wait for better spots

I fold here for reasons mentioned before.
Villains are usually not even close to as wide as NASH. Based on experience (albeit it being limited) people show up with better hands a lot.

Personally I'd probably let this one go, though I think it's close. I think against MP1, we could call off but when MP3 iso's we're probably behind.

Fold, your never ahead here with two people shoving, odds are you are dominated by AK, AQ here and then if not theres very high likelihood of a pocket pair which your behind against slightly anyway, so unless you have them as shoving super wide then fold.

besides, on a 3 way all in, it´s very common for someone to be blocking your Ace outs reducing even more your chances against any pair. So, you´re either dominated or blocked. You would have to rely on hitting a flush. I would have folded

Easy fold. AKs QQ+ is a call.
