$1500 NL HE 6-max Deep Stacked: WSOP Event 22, 88 short stacked, 6 handed

With a stack of 2800 with blinds at 150 / 300 + 25, I am not getting away from 88 UTG, right? This is 6 handed, and I am significantly shorter than everyone else.

Right. Open shove.

 

[Emperor IX]

Yep, 88 is a blessing of sorts here.

 

[grvicious]

hahaha is this seriously a ?.....get the money in id be stoked to see 88 right there

Yes, you can't sit around and wait for AA or KK, you are considered short stack or in trouble in a tournament if you have less than 10x the BB = 3000... PUSH IT!

you`ll be eaten by the antes if you don`t call in this spots
88 will do well considering the situation.Hell, in 6 handed I would shove with 77 and 66 as well.
There`s no point in waiting for a better hand with less than 10 BBs, especially if the antes came into play.

Throw it all in the middle and hope it holds up if you get the callers

 

[trewtrew]

only one move here - allin. U get called by a hand ur flipping against or sometimes have well beat like A5 suited.

Been said above, pretty much - shove this all day long and twice on Sundays.
