shove

Yes shove or fold. You don't want to go back and forth with the big stack here.

 

[xvxjason777]

which is better though? I already know that this is shove or fold.

 

[NEWTDOG101]

The stack size and the bet out of position I'd fold. You're ok on bbs and ur SB so you're not losing much, fold. Never go at it with the big stack unless you have the monster hand!

 

[tenbob]

Stop and go.

 

[xvxjason777]

I went all in and he called with an AJo and hit an ace on the flop.

 

[thebigdawg]

Stop and go.

I was thinking the same thing.

 

[xvxjason777]

By stop and go do you mean shove any flop or just good flops?

 

[aaron_jd]

I'd likely shove in that situation.

[xvxjason777]

thanks so any flop then, I might start trying that one more, micro players probably will call anyways though lol.

 

[badaboombaa]

Wait you have 10bb and want to do anything but shove here? He has a widish range when he min raises and we win the 2+1.5bb+antes when they fold and probably have >50% equity against most calling ranges. Really easy shove imo.

 

[10058765]

Stop and go.

Are you sure?
The BB could try to squeeze and if not, UTG+1 is going to c-bet all the time and will never fold to a shove on the flop (s zero FE).
Folding is to nitty imo, so I would shove here all the time (with FE).
But that's just me...

 

[xvxjason777]

thanks I figured a shove was good, this may be the best hand I'm gonna get and I'm getting tired of finishing around 50th place because everyone has ten times my stack.

 

[xvxjason777]

what would everyone do if I had 150,000 instead?

 

[badaboombaa]

what would everyone do if I had 150,000 instead?

That makes it a pretty easy call pre imo.

 

[WiZZiM]

A stop and go is a pretty terrible idea here.

Just jam it in!

 

[polingpower]

stop and go works.. what is your plan/line is it to shove on any flop
need to have a plan......set
also a shove works.. narrows the range he will call with some what

 

[DetroitJimmy]

I shove first, stop n go second. If you do stop in go, yes of course shove any flop .

The stop in go works better at micros than anywhere. Better players know pot odds and to call with ATC they will raise with. Also works with far worse hands. When I say works though, I mean only once in a while. Best to do with reads and late position raiser.

Boy,am I wrong here.
Hero is SB so first to act on the flop which means indeed you could stop and go.
Though I still opt to a shove.

 

[cjatud2012]

Yeah, not a fan of the stop and go here, if we were in BB and we had a hand that didn't really want a call, you could maybe stop and go. But here we have one left to act behind us, and our hand actually has value, so a shove seems best.
