I think its right. In this buy-in, its normal to find players calling your shove with AKo, JJ, QQ, TT, AQs, AQo.

Yeah no sense in calling in this spot with what the bb has behind. It's either hero fold lol or 4bet, and the 4bet is my play 99.999% of the time. Tough luck on this one but played well.

5bet jamming QQ+ AK+ in this spot.

With the villains in bet percentage being very low,2% out of 100 hands. You got to put him on a top range. I think when you 5 bet, you are only getting called by AA and sometimes QQ. Unlikely for him to have KK.

But regarding with your stack size, I would think you would have get stacked anyways. So it's a cold deck ,and move on.

Just change the way you think. Don't think I have kk; I am going all in. Think about his range of 4 bet.

I think you cant get away from this hand because his range is wider than only AA. Unlucky he had AA this time but for me it is a correct play

Thanks guys, I thought I played this correct and it looks like I did.

With his VPIP being considerably loose I thought JJ+ or a AK... Even with his 3bet percentage being quite low he could still be 3betting QQ+ or AK.

I get what you mean. But everytime i do that. I feel like no body goes out of line esp at low stakes game.

PS Would you be able to look at my post?

Yep lady, you play correctly. I played that tournament many times and usually, with JJ, QQ, KK and AA i prefer go allin instead of make a 4-5bet at that level of blinds.
Plus, you have a HUD, so you can easily check your winnings with pocket KK in this type of MTT to reensure (i'm sure for sure ), that you play exactly has you has to play. Greetings

I lose quite a bit with kings, but I will still shove them

It just a cooler,I would shove also because flatting won't make much sense either.

just because you found a cooler doesnt mean its a fold, its the only hand that beat you, you have 21bb you wanna fold?

Not bad! Just a Cooler

Against that, you can't nothing, everyone would like this played. This is an integral part of the poker games. Bad luckyy
