How you play this

[StArDemonn]

Full ring.. utg has 4 bb and shove u are in sb or btn everybody fold and you woke up with 66,77,88 or 99 (u have 10-15bb) in this situation I just reshove but every time the BB seems to have a bigger pair for example same situation I reshove with 88 for 12 bb after the short stack was all in and bb tank and call with 99 ...or when I have AQ sb the BB had AK. Am I missing something or it just bad luck?How can I fold 99 vs an utg all in with4-5 bb more to call and one more player to act..I really can't flat there and fold if bb wakes up with something.

Seem fine to me. When you are in this late position, and someone behind wakes up with a huge hand, its just bad luck.

If a loss of 4 BB does not crash your stack, then you should call such a push from a player with a very short stack. Of course, you will not always win, but often enough that it pays off.

The answer to the question depends a lot on the situation of icm, but if losing 4 bb does not cause you much harm, then undoubtedly, you must accept this action.

Of course play call, and better all-in. With stack 14bb we have only 2 options, fold or all-in, with such stack having any pocket pair 66+ go all-in.

Calling looks stronger than shoving so it may throw up some red flags for the players in the blinds, causing them to only call and see a flop. That being said you may be able to fold when facing a reshove or maybe you decide to call given the type of player.
