What worse hand calls us when we shove? What better hand folds? We are betting an amount that makes it clear we are committed (when we perhaps might not be with a 5 bb shoving bullet). Achieves same as shove. If we get stationed there are more good cards than bad for us to shove turn. Get best of both worlds.
I hate shoving in these spots. Our shove is more than 2x size of pot
I agree with the posts which say you can't bet 425-475 then folding to a shove. If you're going to take that line, I would prefer a much smaller bet (250-300) which still has the same effect, and even then, I'm still not keen on bet/folding out of a 6.5bb stack.
I think shoving is still best, because we have fold equity, plus if we get called by a 9x hand, we usually have a decent amount of chop outs so it's still not a disaster. If opponent calls and turns over 4x or an overpair, UL, make notes.
Also agree with EvilP that a shove pre is an option also
if oppo call, so what ) could easily call with pairs less than 9's
if they fold we win pot, which is good
If oppo's limp monsters like this then lolz
the only question is, have you seen btn limp monsters before - if answer = no - then ez shove
No way sb is limping any hand, probably paint - low/mid pr
think oppo's could limp with low-mid prs and paint, so think pre shove will be called - but shove flop is better
b/f in this spot would just be terrible
I was quite interested in this hand!!!
