This is the WSOP GG Poker series. $400 Colossus, multiple entries, multiple starting days. The field is a mix of good players but mostly amateurs and some bad players.

Is this spot a standard shove?

Villain 1 - 25BB - not a significant amount of cashes
Villain 2 - 28BB - They have about $300K in cashes
SB - Big stack with 90BB

Hero has 18.5BB in the BB

We are 8 handed.

Preflop: Hero has A

Villain 1 raises 2BB UTG+1, MP1 calls, 3 folds, SB calls, Hero shoves

Good shove? What is the minimum that you are shoving in this spot?

Against a random, I think it's a good squeeze. V1's description scares me though, as he probably has a very tight UTG+1 RFI range there -- so I might pass if I thought that was the case. Very little doubt I squeeze if V1 was opening MP or later.

IF I were to judge V1 as very tight RFI here, I think my shove range is AQ+(maybe AK)/TT+ (which really isn't a squeeze at all).

Squeezing might be ok, but this hand looks fine to flat. We have a hand that can flop a good draw, and have good relative position on the flop. Let’s see 3.
