Got confused in this spot - had the SB not flatted here I would be shoving 100%. Post Flop I think raiser is cbetting wide here but a shove from me is always getting called given stacks and I have A high...

The MP makes a min-raise (2x) pre-flop, but it’s indeed weird that the SB is calling here with his 12bb stack with you behind. Without reads on him I would still shove pre-flop with him in the pot. Off course you have 0 fold equity, but I expect your still in front against both ranges.

Flatting here is I think the worst option, because you need to invest almost 50% of your starting stack. Than is folding even better if you don’t know what the best move is.

Best regards,

Cheers SDK, I hate the way this played out and 100% agree that shoving pre should have been my line
