AT bubble 1k event live

[saddu]

hey guys,
its a live event, 29 players still in, 27 place payed, 4 round without the possibility to take a pot.
blinds 3k/6k ante 500, initial pot 12k
average stack 85k and i have 84k chip, the game is obviusly tight
AT utg on a 6-handed table what do you do?
i already had some discussion about this hand with a friend that is a cash-tourny pro and play very good against these italian-style/fish!

ok.. from the answer on 2+2 seems a pretty easy shove.. but for my friend there is another ways to play this hand, raise like 15k.. knowing that people in italy is not going to shove light.. probably only aq+jj+.. with some nit folding aq too..(yea crazy) so folding to a shove.

agreed, you very well could also fold, which sounds crazy but personally i would perfer the money, then a fifty fifty coin flip with someone, every situtation in poker is unique, sometimes a little common sense goes a long way.

folding is insane

if you know they are all huge nits then you can raise/fold (or that maybe all bar 1 are nits so you can raise/call him but fold to the others etc)

but you really need STRONG reads for that, mathematically this hand is never foldable with these stacks - its just sometimes when you're playing live you can have reads that defy game theory/mathematics etc

online it's an easy shove though
