Full Tilt No-Limit Hold’em Tournament, 500/1000 Blinds 125 Ante (9 handed) – Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

saw flop | saw showdown

MP1 (t12018)
Hero (MP2) (t12891)
MP3 (t37699)
CO (t49595)
Button (t7115)
SB (t5639)
BB (t13032)
UTG (t12352)
UTG+1 (t13046)

Hero’s M: 4.91

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with A, Q
3 folds, Hero bets t8000, 4 folds, BB raises to t12907 (All-In), Hero calls t4766 (All-In)

I thought about raising all in but i didn’t think i would get a caller, so i figure a pot commiting raise should get me reraised by a commiting ace, or jack queen,  i needed to double up plus the old saying “if they would fold for pot , then they might fold for less”, so i figure to either take the blinds or prepare to flip for it, i was already in the money and this was the best hand i had in a while.

 

so was this good move, or just all  ?

Flop: (t27157) J, 8, 7 (2 players, 2 all-in)

Turn: (t27157) K (2 players, 2 all-in)

River: (t27157) 5 (2 players, 2 all-in)

Total pot: t27157

I think he would of called regardless does it matter?

Results below:
BB had 6, 6 (one pair, sixes).
Hero had A, Q (high card, Ace).
Outcome: BB won t27157

You only have 13BBs to begin with.  Making it 8k with only 13k is essentially a shove to anyone who has any clue what is going on.  In my opinion, with an M of 5 or below, you should just be shoving your entire range, whether it be pocket 3s, aces or QT.

Ya this is defenetly a shove. I think a raise actually looks a  little scarier then a shove so the best way for you to get called here by a lessor ace is a shove. Because with a M this small people have you on a very wide shove range. If you try to get tricky with a raise people my be inclined just to lay down ace 9 so they dont run into a monster. This is a shove for me without question.
