not been at table long so no real reads...I did open shove from the HJ a few hands back and no callers

Do I have enough chips to get this move through?

I like this more with a BTN flat, SB should be pretty strong here right?

might be ok, but with being new to the table and having no reads on what types of ranges your opponents r raising i dont like it

I'm a pretty liberal squeezer, but I'd fold here w/o reads w/ this hand. Give me something like A8,KT,22,etc and I'd shove this all day.

No reads and a SB flat, I like the fold, though as stated yes FE is there.

SB flat makes it better though...whole point of a squeeze

My problem is that the small blind is flatting his BB BTN and we have no info on the history of their battle, is there bad blood there? Is SB flatting to be tricky? I like sittin in the weeds and feelin it out for a sec.. Maybe I'm missing chances to be more aggressive.

I think is a pretty good squeezed sort of marginal as if I'm the open I would know if you know what you are doing thats a dream spot for a squeezed and will re iso pretty light there but most at an 11 FO dont know that and will just think holy **** he went all in and two people are behind me so I must fold

I would rahter have q7 than a8....as a lot less x7's and xq's dominated us compared to ax that dominate a8....and there rant many non PP/Ax's we are expecting calls from except maybe KQs

you have less then 20bb your going to be getting it in soon anyway, and even though you are readless i dont think its a bad spot to take that chance

The opener has to have the top of his range to call you or be a thinking players and recognize that you are and the SB just isnt going to have a big hand enough to call

+its spades, and we have some equity when called
