$1.20 NL HE STT: Need help with my bubble play-Odd flop shove
im posting this hand for 2 reasons, 1)I am focusing on my bubble play and want to know if this was a good spot to try and steal blinds. 2)this is a weird play i see some villains make that im not sure what it means.
But anyways, villain seemed to be calling pretty wide which might have made this a bad idea to pick up blinds but i also know he defends his bb and has folded to flop/turn bets so i was not to worried when bb called (still kinda sucked when im holding A5o). But then he makes that odd shove on a weird flop. I can kind of rule out a 10 in his hand cause he would probably slow play or bet smaller since i most likely missed that flop with a lot of raising hands. i can see him holding a pp here or even a weaker 5. I was not gambling my tourney life here either way but i just want to get an idea as to what these shoves might mean, should i always be folding in this spot or is this a profitable call sometimes.
