Hi, would you shove here with five behind, we are itm. Feels good to have the ace blocker but is this the bottom of your shoving range or would you include some QJ,KJ possibly suited combos.

Thanks,

Yes, definitely a shove w 10 bb's (for me anyway). With 10bb's, I'm open shoving pretty liberally.
It is definitely NOT the bottom of my shoving range.

Depending on your opponent, you can even call a guy shoving with 10BB and you have 10BB with A8o+ and 77+
Your looking for good spots to be ahead and double up.. Not necessarily always shoving over calling a shove.

thanks all,

A8 does look like a shove and proly QJo,KJo too with its card removal value. I think also any pair is a shove but ima proly fold the likes of A7o-
