We are deep in the $1.10 rebuy on Stars. Almost $4k to the winner, not bad for $1.10 entry plus a few rebuys and an add on.
3518 players, we are down to last 70 or so.
I can not get the HH converter here to work now, get a 404 error….any ideas?
Obviously if either player shoves pre I'm folding, but two flatters? And on this flop?

Hi, thanks for your reply.
Yeah, I figured if he has the jack, I still have about 50/50 after this flop with my flush, two pair, and trip outs.
Reg saving chips for reship, I was trying to be table captain, and had already picked up a couple of pots like this, raising in late(ish) pos and getting folds. It’s half a mill each time, but the strange dynamic occurs when I got two flatters. Normally here you either get shoved or folded.
The blinds are so quick in these turbos so I think we have to steal here liberally when picking up this many chips for each time it works with relatively small risk.
More thoughts on this?

If you were on the CO or better I’d min-open, depending on the table dynamics. Chances of the BB reshipping are still very high, so you’d need a good read that he’s too tight, imo. Beeing MP+1 with the 3BB to act after you I’d fold a T-high hand.
Gernerally in these situations (very short stacks only) I tend to wait for Equilibrium +EV spots and play push-fold to maximize FE.
OTF def get it in!
Maybe bet a little higher (~3.2 BB) to make AT kinda hands more inclined to fold instead of raise you. Reasoning beeing, you collect a nice pot, without the risk to lose your stack, although you should always have great equity against anyone. Not sure if this is best thinking, though.
