MP is 22/19/9 in 850 hands. BTN is 73/39/25 in 60 hands. Just a weird spot I got myself in dealing with the short stack. Does MP C/C flop with JT here instead of just betting it? Thoughts?? Thanks-

BB: 158.32 BB
UTG: 44.93 BB
MP: 116.33 BB
CO: 115.58 BB
BTN: 18.95 BB
Hero (SB): 106.28 BB

Hero posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has 2

fold, MP raises to 2.5 BB, fold, BTN calls 2.5 BB, Hero calls 2 BB, fold

Flop: (8.5 BB, 3 players) Q

Hero checks, MP checks, BTN bets 4.04 BB, Hero calls 4.04 BB, MP calls 4.04 BB

Turn: (20.61 BB, 3 players) A

Hero checks, MP checks, BTN bets 7.79 BB, Hero calls 7.79 BB, MP raises to 109.79 BB and is all-in, BTN calls 4.63 BB and is all-in, Hero?

I think I would raise the flop enough to put the fish all in.

The turn is pretty sick.

You only beat AQ, I'd just muck personally, but it is kinda weird he just x/c and ships there.

I would also just raise flop

It's just fold pre. BTN's cc makes it even lower ev, because you have bad imp odds on hitting a set.

HJ's turn shove is quite strange, but I would just fold expecting him to be nutted most of the time. Maybe he thinks that our hand looks like either 22 or something so weak that it can't possibly call any sizing? Interesting play if so.

Think calling is fine when you have this BTN.

Thanks for feedback everyone. Just an odd line where he raises PF, C/C this flop but then happy to ship the turn. I usually would just C/R flop but with the shorter stack I though I’d try to under rep my hand a bit. Unique spot for sure.

Even when he is this short?

Oh no. It's not. I kinda forgot about that.
