Preflop: Hero is MP1 with 9d 9c

Hero showed 9d 9c and lost (-1,788,847 net)
BTN showed Ac Ks and won 3,910,194 (2,121,347 net)

My place was 5/9. I thought to min-raise/fold but the CO the BTN and the SB was loose and probably they will just call my min-raise so I thought to shove it there. It sucks :/

at a higher BI you would probably be better off raise/CALLING to induce some lightish 3b shvs, but at this stake level, best to stick to (slightly adjusted on tight side) nash ranges for push/fold stages, and 99 is a clear +eV shove here

yeah, it sucks to lose a flip at this stage, but you did nothing wrong imo

a good point made by pleno1 there - definitely better to play push/fold at FTs generally, to apply maximum pressure and avoid awkward spots post-flop, I just meant to point out that R/F is to be avoided, and if you were to min-raise, it should be to call a 3b, not fold, and if facing better/more active players, (ideally in a stl/resteal dynamic, and at earlier stages) we can sometimes mr/call w' 12-16 BB stacks, rather than open shv them (hope that makes sense?)
