Interesting hand on the money bubble of an MTT. Just want to get some opinions on what others would do here? I'm not sure my play is +EV or not. It's a pretty interesting spot, one that I dont think I've ever really come across before...

I'll post my action and reasons after a few replies.

Ship it preflop, as played shove the flop i guess.

shove pre, I'm not sure if I'd ship the flop though, hence why we should just ship pre :p

If I were to check though I'd just be looking to fold on a later street, unless I caught an non-club ace or a king obviously. In this spot I feel like it's pretty transparent what we have if we shove the turn or river, so either go all-in on the flop or check/fold all the way.

Yeah, I realized that shipping it pre would've been the better option. I know the players behind me folded a lot to my PFRs. I didn't put sunted on anything with his EP limp and figured he might just fold to a PFR while on the bubble instead risking going out.

So, I guess I figured raising here was just as affective as shoving. Thinking back, I would've snap called if anyone shoved over my raise...so, once again, shoving is the better option here.
