Hi,

What do you suggest shoving here vs utg 3x open
Less than 100 hands on villain, but he's still on the aggresive side.

Too lose, I would Shove with 99 in normal conditions at least and if he is a good TAG TT but I'd he is a nit you need JJ.

I think it's a shove- 77 is probably too good to fold for 11 BBs in this spot I believe. I stand to be corrected though, just a beginner!

with our stack I dont think I would fold to aggro opener, if he has 88+ so be it, we need to be taking some chances now

It's pretty close but against a strong range there is a pretty big difference between 77 and 99. So I would probably go with 99+ here.

I'd also fold this one. From my experience a 3x UTG is usually pretty strong. You don't have any fold equity and best case scenario you are against AK or AQ where the worst is having 19% equity against an overpair.

I prob shouldn't make decisions based on trial and error from the past and practice making decisions purely based on math preflop with given stack size.

Thanks and I agree with all of you guys.
