blinds 1k/500
just made final table, player I am unfamiliar with in front of me raises to 3x
i allin my 99 (6x)
he has AA, I dont suckout.

i dont think it was so bad. you only had 6bb left either shove or fold imo. you cant call cuz den your prolly commited. or youll be out the next time the button comes why not with pocket 99s? den again your playin in CC freeroll everyone got pocket Aces :) so you should fold.

Lol why are we arguing?

Ship or fold, that's standard.

99 against a UTG range, he can have AK/AQ/AJs.. stuff like that which we're ahead of..

You just ran into the top of his range.

Fact is with 66bb you need to be shoving way worse than that anyway..

On top of the fact its a freeroll so ranges (might) be wider?

You played it fine.. only bad thing you could have done was call.. even folding's pretty bad imo.

Auto-shove. If you're folding 99 in this situation, what are you shoving? It's in the top 5% of all possible hands, so the chance of being dealt something better within the next few hands is pretty small.

Would you fold if this same situation happened nowhere near the money? If so, it's waaaay too tight. And if not, what's the rationale for folding now?

I meant with 6BB any pair is a shove to say the least...Maybe I got ur post wrong. I won't look for it and read it again but correct me if I'm wrong: Didn't u say in that spot he can either shove or fold? Well the fold part got me, no way there is a situation with 6BB we can fold 99 there...w/e...and bout calling, I tought he had to call an all in, which is fine imo.

i mean, with 6 big blinds left you dont have much of an option. you are gonna have to go in preflop at some point, and you probably dont have a lot of time to wait. 99 is probably your best bet, just tough luck that you ran into it against aces

When it is shove or fold (and with 6BB and a pocket pair that is what it is), then I should wait one more hand. I know me, and I will lose with AA in a position like this. But if I wait one more hand I will get T7o, shove and win. Poker is easy.
