    Snap shove. Even if you're against a set, you can still hit.

    Just don't fold.

    Prob flat you're never folding and can let him sometimes bluff turn. 

    But yh

    Just don't fold

    open shove 30bbs?

    Like the min.  Like flop bet sizing.  Shove or call get it in on any turn, eithers fine.

    Thanks for the replies. I wanted to be sure I was reviewing hands honestly, and not just putting it down to "one of those things" too easily. Obviously I was not folding, and didnt like the option of call/fold on an unhelpful turn.

    I shoved quickly and was snapped by offsuit K9 which held. Guess I was about 45/55 there.

    The other thing I looked at was my preflop minraise on the button. I would often bet bigger here, up to 3x. But both the blinds had big stacks and with KQ suited I would have to fold to a 3bet. So I thought the minraise better?

    3xing from the button with 30bbs effective stack sizes is pretty bad imo, if that is your standard raise size then you probably aren't stealing anywhere near enough, and if you are then you're making your bluffs too expensive

    LOL...A year back when I was running better you know I would have been doing just that, Ryan. And chatbox criticism when I binked would have been water off a ducks (or penguins) back.

    No work for a year and a bit of runbad have slowed me down !

    Unlucky in the Vegas semi last night, sure you will get there though.

    Saving my rungood for Walsall.
