DYM help

edited February 2013 in The Poker Clinic
Against a random opponent, whom I haven't seen getting out of line...playing a tight game. Is this a spot I should be shoving? Or should I just fold and continue to play tight as I have a big stack? 

Thanks for the help in advance

    You're sat second out of 4 in a dym. Why risk that when you're shoving into a small stack who will call you much wider as he's already got 25% of his stack committed. Let someone else put their chips at risk against him. This type of game is all about risk management. Sat where you are you can fold your way to victory 80% of the time.

    have to agree here,why shove,u have given your oppo a role reversal,and you could end up the shorty.
    Your in a good position,and its all about surviving to the pay out.

    Really we need to know what the other stack sizes involved are. I can see both stacks here are about 6k so the other two share the other 6k but it matters as to whether that's 5k anf 1k, 3k and 3k or w/e.

    Given just the info we have, I'm leaning more towards a jam but obv I aint done any ICM calcs or anything. You should still have a good amount of FE especially against a tight opponent cos he aint gonna call you off with 49o etc.

    Yeah I'm putting him all in too.

    You've got 4.2 in chips, other two have 7k between them (so around 3.5 each prob). If you lose you're probably only around 600 off chip leader and you're db next. You might not get a better chance to take someone out and with kj you've got a half decent hand heads up.
