It was a good spot for a squeeze (not a shove lol) IMO.

Don't sit with 50xBB although I bet you're glad you had 50xBB here

if i raise to £3 tho only leaves me £7 back and more then likely no ace or king flop so best to get it in imo

sat with spare change

It's not a squeeze. You have a big value hand. A squeeze is a large 3-bet after an opening raise and a call. The whole idea behind the term "squeeze" is that it makes it difficult for the open-raiser to call with a sub-premium hand as they're put under pressure from either side by both your 3-bet and the player that called their opening raise. A squeeze is always a bluff since, if you had a big hand, you wouldn't want to squeeze out weaker hands, you'd want them to call..

That makes this shove bad: You have a big value hand but have made a bet that forces all weaker hands to fold and can only be called when you're either flipping or are dominated.

u want folds with a squeeze, this is just a value shove )

i disagree how its bad with my stack like i said above y make it £3 and then more then likely i miss wasted £3 this way i can pick up the dead money out there

Any hand that is dominated by AK would surely just think "meh! It's only 4BBs I've put in so far. I fold". 3-bet to a normal amount and you might actually get called by worse or even 4-bet by worse. I think any right thinking player would only call this bet with aces or kings. 50BBs deep or not

DOHHHHHHH

His alias sez it all!

Sit with 100xbb

muppet lol

rancid

see I don't actually think its' that bad a shove - but you gotta think that oppo will call with worse or your happy racing 50bb

yeah level you I am so weak - look I shove - I have no hand.com - hahahaha u call with AQ - u like flipping too !!


gg

percival09

meh I think shoving is fine. No probs imo

bolly580

people who think shovings fine...just lol

percival09

what's so bad about it?

rancid

I don't think it's that funny tbh )

what's the the other option 3 bet oop to what  - get called by worse - yeah & c-bet, how much ! - yeah and how much of your stack is in

or we just 3 betting light w/AK as a squeeze !


confused

percival09

fwiw I don't mind 3betting and basically getting it in on any board - I think that's maybe the best play, but I def don't think shoving is bad. 

Lambert180

Yeah I agree with Percival, this was my point. When you shove you force all weaker hands to fold. Whereas you 3bet to a decent amount, and you allow weaker hands to call. Yes sometimes you'll miss the flop, but so does the villian too. When you 3bet you're committing to getting it in regardless, just the same as if you shove, except you keep their range wider.

You 3bet, and then shove any flop or call the 4bet shove pre.

Really?

You're suggesting standard re raise is better?

Puts you in spot where you feel pretty foolish when you miss flop and half your stack is in the middle.

+ 1 to jac obviously if i came in with full buy in i play different
