JUST some thoughts on how anyone else would be playing this please...?

On the bubble, sitting fairly comfortably in chips. The raiser is a tag reg at this level and the other guy has about 1700ish behind.

    I shove.

    Other guy with 1700 is FAR from dead with >10bbs so he can't be classed as a short stack, if he had 300 for this level, 2bbs, then its an easy fold but not >10. 

    Reason for shove aswell is it can look like a scared AK/AQ just wanting to win it now so might get loose call from JJ/QQ, however he really can only call a reshove over a 3x at 75/150 w/KK/AA imo given his stack and level of safety (as in he can't get blinded out for a long time). If you just reraise to say 1100 that looks crazy strong and will defo only get called by BIG hands.

    Well at least I know I made the right decision then, cos I shoved and he had aces!!

    I dont normally like to get involved with the other big stack but as said the short stack isnt really that short so had no choice really. thanks for the feedback
