I’d raise smaller to around 3.5bb aiming to iso against HJ and keep him in with that entire broad weak range which JJ dominates. We also rep a range that covers overcards to the JJ nicely and can therefore range cbet the flop.
If you cbet Axx then be wary about continuing ott. Rec 100bb players on a live deep sun run tend to pick up and rely on some pretty keen postflop reading skills that shouldn’t be underestimated.
If a rec HJ limp raises I’d fold. We’re in unknown territory and a 23bb stack at this point of the mtt is super valuable.
Just a couple of things, please, love some feedback.
If you raise 3.5 and HJ and SB probably calls POT - 11bbs and you have 22bbs.
Considering HJ has
100bbs, a likely scenario is cbet and HJ calls, SB folds and suddenly the pot is 17bbs and you have18bbs
What do you do on the turn and the river? Obviously depends on the cards but there is some real pressure, especially with the stage of the tournie
Is that thinking too weak?
