i just busted out of this, sumting like 320th

was shortish and reshoved on position raiseer.. i had the A2.. he snapcalled off nearly all his chips with A7... dunno if my shove was good or bad now... i assumed hed be raising nearly any 2 cos of my stack and his position// and the fact i have an ace lessense the chance he does... also would be expecting him to fold hands as weak as this.. i gave him a note ... not sure if it was a dreadfull move or not right now still $400 is better than -$215

i had 23k blinds 800 1600, im in bb with A2, sb raises about 2.8x the bb and makes the pot around 8k in dead money.. for me this is certainly enough to warrent trying to steal... i cant imagine folding here, i have no reason to think he is a tightass so he shud be raising very wide range here.... so shove is fine i guess
GLGLGLGLGL WIN !

Pretty sound reasoning. I probably wouldn't do this at this stage, but looked you had fold equity. Well done on cashing. Looks like Aelred's awoke from the wilderness of poverty...playing the $750k. Long may it continue.

satelitted in...

what would u do here then - just fold?

u cant really flat call it profitably unless u plan on shoving on alot of flops where he c bets into u...

i mean there alot of chips out there i really wouldnt consider folding unless i knew the guy was a really big nit.. otherwise i think i have to shove. but this could be a leak .. a2 isnt a good hand lol

Dunno man, if I don't know the player its tough. Safe to say people will be stealing alot at this stage, so Ax could very well be good. But cos its so weak, A-2, I might fold tbh, and maybe fold the winning hand. Till later when you get a better idea then you shove it up his ass with your AJ and he donks its off with A7 then. I honestly don't mind the move though. He can raise alot there and fold, but cos these twits know that people resteal frequently in this spot he might have his calling range lowered- ala A7.

I don't know if its a leak bud. Calling probably is quite bad aswell. So fold or shove I guess. I personally lean towards fold, cos I don't wanna jeopardise my mtt life with A-2 and be the guy giving him action. I'd prefer to wait a bit and see how he plays.

On the other hand, he coulda had KQ and lord knows hes calling then you mighta won.

yeah i can recall folding in these scenarios in the past... just felt right at that time to shove on him... boy was i wrong lol.

alot of it has to do with the flow of the table aswell imo... i was not getting chances to open raise, i was waiting for an opportunity to resteal as counterattack was the only route available.... and then it presented itself.. hard to get away from doing it when its allready planned expecting him to raise almost any 2 there ... also i think he is in a minority of people that call so weak as A7.. eitehr that or he was on tilt... he called it very fast so could well have been tilt. most people online will still be folding sh1t hands when put to the test.

Been kinda card dead for awhile now - seeing my chips dwindle down. Need a hand soon.
