BB VP$IP = 11% (16/140)
BTN VP$IP = 22% (31/140)
Hero VP$IP = 14% (20/140)

Tight Players, Was this a correct shov in terms of which player I was attacking??? It seemed good at the time, but then maybe I though should I have waited and tried to shov into the Big stack because he had a wider range! ??? any thoughts? and yes I got PT3 today

KTo is a monster, shove and it is not even close. It look like an ATC spot imo.

You shouldn't be thinking about it in terms of which stack to attack. You should think about it in terms of what range you should be shoving/calling in each position. The big stack is going to be calling wider (assuming no reads) but this does NOT mean you should shove wider into the big stack...quite the opposite. Your main goal is picking up the blinds with a stack this short.

If you don't have it already, I suggest you get SNGWiz or a similar program. That will give you a good idea of the ranges you should be shoving here. As far as this particular hand goes...KTo is a clear shove, and as mtgalex said, it's not even close. SB vs BB I'm shoving ATC here unless I know the BB is calling down light.
