Is this a fold or a call? I snap call one shove, but two put me to a decision.

We're close to the bubble, I'm 10th/30. With the average stack down to > 10BB in this turbo tourney it's turned into a shovefest and players are pushing with an increasingly wide range. I don't have many hands on either villian.

You said it “Turbo shove fest”. A regular speed tourney I can see concern. Being a turbo is going dramaticly change both shove/reshove ranges of your villians. As well with 10bb no time or chips to wait “for a better spot” (QQ for a triple up is as good as it gets at this point in this tourney imo). I be jammin and jumping off the couch no matter the outcome.

This is a tough spot with the blinds the way they are. Usually with your BB this would be an easy shove but with two shoves before you, it makes it a hard decision. I could see at least one of them or both shoving with Ax or Kx, which would make it a race. However, a win would give you a good stack compared to the rest of the field. However, I like to be the agressor and would make a tough laydown here. I just do not want to stack off Ax or Kx.

This is an easy call, I don't think theres any room for argument tbh.
