This hand was last night in the Pokerstars Sunday Million, just under 500 left & ITM. Average was about 96k at the time, so I was just above (Jemima21).. shortack shoves 10BB, with what I think is a relatively wide range(or should be) with 10bigs, but the next player just flats.. Now this is obv concerning as looks strong, I happened to be on the phone to DarrenSpangles at the time who urged a fold, but I saw the stacks involved and knew better & figured he would make the call with 99+, so a great spot for close to a treble up.
Now i'm thinking, Fold and find a better spot, but with 25bigblinds, im not sure. What would you do? _________________ 'Impatience for victory only guarantees defeat' - Louis XIV

flat looks so strong in that spot, I can't really see him doing that anywhere close to as far down as 99 as opposed to shoving. Having said that I am sure I would shove too in practice. UL. _________________ "Brandon Uhl @BrandonUhl

Must burn to know DS right again...
Seriously, I had two similar situations last night in two diff T's (obviously I think as I lost both) but I was holding AKs. After much thought I decided my imperfect temporary solution was to think of AK as QQ in those situations - and too weak to continue. Both times I lost to AA and KK. _________________ "I find it's best to start the day with no composure and then you've got nothing to lose." B. Boatman

I have to agree - I see AA/KK soo many times in that spot but with 25bb's - Can i fold QQ there against their whole range??? _________________ If i want a monkey i get a monkey!

Cheers for the feedback all, agree with everything you have put. Tbh at 7pm at the start, I prob find a fold, but after staring at the laptop for 12hours, I had entered zombie-mode and wasn't able to do so. Fk it. Spangles was right for once.. _________________ 'Impatience for victory only guarantees defeat' - Louis XIV
