I feel like my stack is too small to PFR. I figure one of the limpers may call, but not both. Putting them on a range of like 99-22,AJs-ATs,KTs+,QTs+,JTs,AJo-ATo,KTo+,QTo+,JTo I'm 57%. Thoughts?

Pre Flop: (t150) Hero is BTN with K

1 fold, UTG+1 calls t100, 3 folds, CO calls t100, Hero ???

i think the ranges are prob a bit off.

I'm shoving this. I've seen all sorts of crap. mostly small pp and Ax rag.

I'd just call and see a flop. Even though shoving will often fold out the limpers and add 350 chips to our stack, it's still relatively early in the mtt, there are not even antes yet and we have 16bb's. I think KQ-suited plays quite well in position and in a limped pot.

Shoving w/ out reads over a few limpers is just so spewy. Especially given how short UTG's stack is and how large COs stack is. If UTG is bad enough to limp ep with that stack he's bad enough to call you with any pp and Ax and co may feel very obligated because he is getting "good odds" to make a call.

If you feel confident post than limping isn't awful and folding really isn't the worst thing in the world either.

I don't even care about their ranges, with 16BB KQs is the nuts against limpers. And btw if they're bad enough to limp with 11BB they surely will be bad enough to l/c KJo etc and l/f alot as well, and 15BB over the top means alot of FE against CO.

readless vs 2 limpers and with your stack, just get it in.

This is a no brainer. You've got a ton of FE and a nice hand.

rather ask what range to shove and 22+ /good broadways (def KQs)/ AT+ seem nobrainer shoves to me here.
