Hero is in highjack with $102, picked up a couple pots to start, but hasn't seen a flop in over an hour.

Villain one is in SB, covers hero, has played moderately, not overly aggressive, nor tight--has lost a couple showdowns without showing.

Villain two is in BB, covers hero, has lost a showdown for over 50bb with 89 on an 8 high board vs. an overpair, and rebought.

Table is a mix of tight and loose, with a bit of limping but also a couple blind steals from mid for only $6, and even a couple folds all the way around to the BB. Table may be observant overall but SB and BB probably aren't.

Folds around to hero, hero raises to $7 with KsKh. SB calls, BB calls.

Pot is $21, flop Qd9d4c. SB bets 10, BB raises to 30

Hero thinks for a while, shoves remaining 95.

How was the preflop raise, and how was the shove?

It was a relatively tight table for 1/2, and 10-12 raises were rare, and I hadn't played for an hour. I didn't want to chase away all the action.

SB had AA and called. BB folded as expected. Probably had top pair, as I thought (which is why I shoved. knew I'd get a call from his top pair if SB folded)

1. So let's say I had made it 12, and SB flat called, and BB called. Can't avoid a shove on that flop, I think, given that one of them would bet before me.

2. Let's say I had made it 12, and SB flat called, and BB folded. Now the pot is 26. Is there any way I could get away from KK in that situation?

3. Let's say I had made it 12, and SB reraised to 36. BB folds. I can't see myself not shoving here, because queens are as likely as aces, and AK and JJ are probably in SB's range as well.

This thread belongs in the BBM.

Both of your money is going in regardless, there's really nothing to figure out.
