I watched Bigdog's vid on 3 bet shoves last week and def helped plug an 18-25bb leak of not actively looking for spots to 3 bet shove when the circumstances dictate. Just wanted to say thanks for the insight. I had a guy in fits at Mohegan Sun last Friday when I 3 bet shoved him from the BB. He was fairly solid and he raised to 3X from the hijack after it was folded to him, everyone folded and I re-shipped a 20BB stack on him. He was sitting on about 30BB and he hemmed and hawed for a minute or so and mucked. He had 3 bet me earlier and I folded A10 and he showed aces, so when I was about to muck he says cmon man I showed you blah blah. I was like “you don't wanna see that”. He says “sure I do” so I tell the dealer to show him and he starts with “oh, where'd you learn that Poker Stars” I just started laughing thinking about how in the right spot that play works like a freakin charm. I got bounced with like 30/125 players left (paying 15) when I open shoved a suited QJ from the cutoff (folded to me) and managed to run into Kings on the button AND Aces in the BB, LOL ……. WTF?
Thanks again bigdog!!

Live poker is funny. Be prepared to get nitrolled a ton if you put in volume just because they don't know any better.
I played at Foxwoods over Presidents Day weekend in some $400 mtt and re-shoved 15 bb's with J9s. My opponent tanked long enough for someone else to call clock and then he finally called with TT lol …
Then I sucked out. Hahah.
