    with such a small raise you are almost inducing the jam (maybe thats what you wanted). so i think now you gonna have to call it off.

    Yes it was as BH but I got absolutely slated for it. To be honest I don't usually question things like this as I have always been under the impression that by opening I have to call in these spots and thats the plan from the outset but should I ever be folding or should I just fold pre. (But I find it hard to fold anything pre :)   ...)

    Defo a call as played,

    You should know what you are going to do before you make that raise if any of the other players reshove.

    that raise is marginal anyway because it's utg, but it depends on how many times you have been opening and how the table has been playing.

    wd on a fine result

    Calling another 52k to win 154k, so we're getting 2/1, think we have to call.

    Thank you, yeah I did plan to call a shorty shove tbh but I was questioned after and I doubted myself as this is something I have just always done. Always good to get other point of views

    cheers guys

    You won't be surprised that I'd be folding pre. Not a strong hand to be playing oop against some decent opposition, and late in a tournament when everyone is playing shallow. As played the raise size is standard, and with fleecers stack its only ever going to be fold or shove for them. On that basis it would be very nitty not to call. Of course reads, table dynamic could change things.

    just seen QQQ's post - great result - wp

    guess fleecer/railers were a bit upset you ended their chance of the mini/main bonus I assume

    It wasn't fleecer no it was after when I was showing my hand history to a few friends. Yeah I heard fleecer got really close to both !!! 2 people in 2 nyts!!!
