Hi,

I only have about 20 hands with the MP raiser and no reads. 12 people left in the $2.50 180 man tourney.

He could be raise-folding with a weakish hand, but then nobody's 20bb deep with him and I can't imagine him saying to himself that he'll call the CO, Button and BB, but not the SB. So, should I have suspected a nutted range here? If so, what should my calling range be in this position? And also should I be playing a bit tighter here because of the stage of the tournament, or not really think of tightening up until the final table?

Thanks a lot

not too sure what you mean by should you have a suspected nutted range here but at minimum i'd be shoving like 88 ajs aqo here and maybe wider. should be a little tighter in general cause of small icm considerations but it's not too significant (i.e. we aren't really playing 100% cEV)

Readless this is a snap shove (we need a v strong read to pass).

OMGclaydol range looks good here.

nope

it is not "snap" shove... keep your nuts in secret and wait a few secs and then shove
