    Standard SHOVE?

    Looks like you have less than 10bb. Is it a Bounty Hunter ?
    Question is, if AQss isn’t a shove pre then what is?
    If SB or BB shove, what’s your response?
    Take that decision off the table and shove pre, you’d maybe be flipping , or miles ahead,better being the aggressor than the one making a decision.

    Exactly this.

    Once you have given someone a free flop, the hand plays itself. I don't think there is a right or wrong way to play that flop. Provided all the chips go in on the flop or the turn.

    But that is a shove pre all day long.

    Well ladies & gents!

    I genuinely don't get what point you are trying to make here.

    You had KK. You had less than 10 bigs.
    You still didn't shove. Although at least you raised.

    Instead of putting your chips in when about 86% favourite, you chose to put the majority in when you were about a 76% favourite. And lost. Something that will happen. Roughly 1 time in every 4. Look at that flop-there are an awful lot of hands that are priced in to call. It is 2800 to get back 9600.

    In order to win 3 hands out of every 4, you have to lose the other 1.

    Morning Paul @misterpj

    I'm not really qualified to comment, as I pretty much only play PLO8, Big O & PLO these days, but with 10 bigs & A-Q suited I'm shoving pre 100% of the time. Makes the hand so much simpler to play. Villain may well call anyway, but in my (irrelevant) view, shoving pre is the only play here.

    How has Royal Ascot treated you?
  • tomgooduntomgoodun Member Posts: 3,756
    Approx 10 bigs, 2 limps and wake up with KK
    I’m rubbing my hands with glee and shoving pre approx 100% of the time 😉
    Never raising, if an A flops what do you do?
  • EnutEnut Member Posts: 3,579
    With both those hands, if you had played them correctly, you may well have picked up the pots pre and not suffered any bad beats. That's a fairly easy lesson to learn.

    Well I'm deffo not a "big-hitter", but FWIW, in the A-Q hand, with your stack, I'm shoving all-in with;

    Any A-x

    Any Pair

    Any two paint.

    Might even shove any two high suited connectors from J-10 up.


    In the K-K hand, 100% shove, no caveats.


    In both cases, if we raise small, get a caller(s) & end up seeing a bad flop, we are in a world of pain. Better just to shove pre imo.

    Wow, in motorcycling, BTC, speedway, F1,WTC etc thats a DQ and probably a ban or other penalty.

    Tell me the jockey got sanctioned.

    Well it's a hot topic at present, as this happened at Royal Ascot. We are looking at the red silks, far left.
