Hi guys,

Been some time (few years with only rare grinding) away from tables, so starting from a bit new perspective and putting in more studies and analysis.

This hand: kinda didnt feel to ship it preflop. Should I?

Now I assume it would be better to ship it pre, since MP2 has only 6BBs and his range is like all Ax, Kx suited (I assume), KT+, Q9+, Q8s+, JT+, J8s+, T9, T7s+, 65s+, 22+

And SB range could be roughly the same (or even wider?) here given his stack size?

SB stats: 29/4 on 24 hand
MP2 stats: 24/20 on 17 hands

Smth like this?


Preflop: I think now that I should ship it pre.

Postflop: maybe I should fire on flop? - like 1/3 PSB, cause they might be fold their holdings that didnt connect directly?

What are your thoughts guys? Thanks, TB

probs just reshipping pre

Betting flop and getting shipped on by MP is pretty frustrating since you have to call.

I think with the extra money from the SB then I prefer a shove here unless u hav seen sb be trappy but just seems like they got the stack and are playing pot happy

Betting flop is def an option, you fold sb overcards(which large % of his hands are), and its not a disaster gii vs mp, he wont be folding AT+ 22+ and were ahead of that range

Definitely shipping pre considering MP2 stacksize and the added deadmoney from SB who's very very rarely going to call (and we're in decent shape against his range anyways)
