Scenario: Day 2 of WSOP circuit in LA. Hero had chipped up to 90k, but 1 bad bluff and 1 cooler later, hero ended day 1 with 45k, which is 15 BB at start of day 2. New table draws on Day 2, so, I read up the table mates’ hendon mob database and other details to do my homework.

Seat 1 (Pro)  : 104,500
Seat 2 (Pro)  : 95,500 
Seat 3          : 15,500
Seat 4          : 60,000 
Seat 5          : 95,500
Seat 6          : 68,000
Seat 7          : 136,500
Seat 8 (Hero): 45,000
Seat 9          : 64,500

Hand #1: Button on seat 9. 1500-3000-500. UTG shoves for 5BB, folded to me with AJo. Standard call I suppose. Hope nobody disagrees with me here? I am up against KhTh, and he gets two Ts to double up, and put me in danger zone.

Next 5 hands were junk and I folded. Now I have 26k in UTG.

Hand #2: UTG, I have 25.5k after ante. I am dealt 75o. Should I shove here to show a little bit of strength and go for broke? I folded though.

Hand #3: BB, I have 22k after blind and ante. CO (seat 5) raises to 7k. I look down at ATo. Standard shove spot? Or do you let blinds pass and wait to be first to open, even if it is with 5BB?

Oh, to add, Seat 5 was the least winner according to hendonmob. So, I was thinking if it is worth it to attack him, if I got decent amount of chips.

1 – I shove that, because I don´t want to call 5bb and fold with 10bb behind, I think with a shove I can make AQ to fold most of the time.

2 – With 8.5bb I wait to shove final positions, you will have about ~7bb and I think there is still fold equity for your shoves.

3 – Is a shove for me, if V has a better hand gg.
