200/400 No Limit Hold'em Tournament (7 Handed)
Hand recorder for this hand: PokerStrategy.com SideKick 1.0.51221.1

Preflop: Hero is SB with J♠, J♣
Hero pays ante (50), 6 pays ante, Hero posts small blind (200), BB posts big blind (400), 4 folds, Hero raises for 1430, BB calls

Flop: (3595 - 8.99 bb) T♥, 9♥, 6♥ (3 Players)

Turn: (3595 - 8.99 bb) 5♠ (3 Players)

River: (3595 - 8.99 bb) A♥ (3 Players)

Very tough spot here. I was thinking BB would fold AK and below because he would have seen that BU is super short and is likely to be eliminated soon and didn't want to risk missing the flop with his short stack, so I totally expected to have 98% fold equity (the 2% includes AA,KK,QQ,JJ, maybe TT) but to my surprise he called and sucked out on me. I'm quite frustrated today (lost KK vs 88 while bubbling too) so I'm struggling to conclude whether shoving is right here. Villain had AJo with heart J

Happens, JJ shove is 100% correct there, some players just want to "win" and AJ is "nuts" for them, you must shove there, its possible that Btn doubles and that extra blind becomes necessary.

Hello all,

Great shove. JJ is good here. If villain got very wide calling range we can fold many hands like lots of pockets and strong aces, but JJ is just too good to fold.

Best regards,
Antoan :pokerface:
