Surviving Survivor - Good/bad shove?

Glenelg

Hi,

Was the £1 Sunday survivor series and the villain had been stealing blinds.  Did I act rashly and just run lucky? 

After the hand the villain did call me an idiot in the chatbox which was nice!! Knew I'd tilted him/her tho which was nice!!

Did survive which was even nicer!

Yes. Don't know why you're limping with 10BB and then calling with 9 high... just proves his aggression got you tilted and made you make a bad call!

If you made your mind up you was going all-in what ever happens, i prefer just to open shove... Rather than wait for someone to do my own betting.

Well done on surviving, i didnt got done over by 6 4 to my Pocket 7s

Good advice. Kinda knew I was playing badly.
Another lesson.

either shove or fold pre with 11bb's. But to answer your question,yes you did act rashly and run lucky. I'd have probably called you summat in the chat box as well.lol

I dont think i can call an all-in with 9 high pre flop. You got lucky. I'm not sure i can shove with 9 high pre flop either in a survivor from that position.

Exactly this, also dont ever call a shove with 89 suited may look pretty but its never going to be profitable other then the odd time you get very lucky. It's Clear he affected your play dont let people get to you, you can call wider vs a maniac but not with 9 high

just tell him u put him on 78o
