    Default shoving with aj after two minraises? (6.50)

    pretty tight sng with 7 players left at this blind level.
    i thought i was too aggressive in this spot although i gave myself some fold equity. but sngwiz confirms its a push. what's your line here?

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (7 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    SB (t4460)
    Hero (t1850)
    UTG (t1180)
    MP1 (t1800)
    MP2 (t1095)
    CO (t1455)
    Button (t1660)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with J, A.
    4 folds, Button raises to t200, SB raises to t400, Hero raises to t1850, Button folds, SB calls t1450.

    AJ is the freaking devil hand, always die with it and always get sucked out on with it. His mini-raise screams strength to me, how did he acquire his stack? Very awkward spot and one where I'd probably fold but I'm a nit for doing so, at best I think your racing. I think you can pick a better spot but that's just me.

    If the SB (big stack) only called, I might try a squeeze here with a push. The SB reraised. He is the big stack, he showed strength, I think you have very little fold equity here.
    Yes.
    No.
    I dont know.
    He doesnt mean it,
    But he acts like he does.

    I would fold this, to me SB's min re-raise screams strength (meaning that it is likely your hand is behind his re-raise range) and it is unlikely that SB will fold - most players never fold after 3-betting preflop.

    Easy fold IMO. We have 18bbs , a min raisor and min re raiser , were behind most the time here after the min re raise. If sb folded than i dont mind shoving over on BU raise.
