The bubble has just burst at this 25K Tournament at Delaware Park.  We're down to 13 players.  

 

I'm in the CO with approximately 12bb.  Blinds are at 8k/4k/1k ante.  They'll be going up in about ten minutes.  Average stack at this point is about 140K.  Our table is six handed.  We've been playing together for about an hour.

 

I've just shoved from the button with A8o and got no callers.  Now I look down and have K9o.  Is this a shove?

 

Other factors: the button just doubled up about three hands ago and he's now sitting at about 200K.  The blinds seem fairly tentative.  The SB is down to less than 50K in chips.

 

Another question:  How much do you think the fact that I just shoved the last hand play into my image?  

 

If I'm leaving out other information, please let me know and I'll try to remember.  Thanks

I would generally fold here readless, but given that you've been playing for an hour, you have any more details than “tentative?”  Live players vary so much in how they play small stack situations.  Are they the type that read into things like the fact that you shoved last hand?  

 

In general, I don't think the fact that you shoved last hand is all that important.  If they suddenly put you on any two cards, they are calling with a lot of hands that they shouldn't, yet many of those hands are losing to you while others are ahead.  This seems like a shove to me but it's close.  Would love to have more info.
