3 tables left, around 20-22 players I think, 6 places paid.

blinds 15k/30k

Folded to hero in SB with 56o, remaining 135k.

unknown BB just moved in, with a lot of chips, probably close to 700k.

action on us

call, i hate this being short.

shove, i lean on this.

fold, thinking he can afford to flip with us.

thoughts?

65o is the bottom of the nash equilibrium range for 5bb bvb 9 handed, 54o and 64o are the bottom for 4bb bvb 9 handed (assuming 10% ante). With 4.5bb 65o will definitely be in there.

I'm guessing this is either 6 or 7 handed, though, so if it's a per player ante there are less chips in the middle, meaning the bottom of 9-handed nash should opt to fold, but if it's a bb ante there will usually be the same amount as compared to 9 handed.

With no ante 65o is a fold at both 4bb and 5bb.

Easy fold you have until next bb to jam a pocket pair or any big card, you're too short to limp, a good bb player will put you all in with his atc because he covers you multiple times over

The fact that this is at the bottom of shoving range makes this quite a profitable shove, as most BBs underdefend in spots like this. I've even seen some weak Ax fold here...

When you said just moved in, I had to read that like 3x... ahh, he means just sat down.

Yeah because of his stack size, it's close, but don't think you can afford to fold. So...

Thanks for the replies, yeah sat down. Move in is so funny! Haha

I shove, he wakes up with QQ, got double gutter and blanked turn and river. I think he won the tourney.
