    Default TT & 88 in $26

    No reads.

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, 28000 Tournament, 80/160 Blinds (9 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    SB (t1951)
    BB (t4958)
    UTG (t8015)
    UTG+1 (t5306)
    MP1 (t1815)
    MP2 (t5845)
    MP3 (t3480)
    Hero (CO) (t3295)
    Button (t5070)

    Preflop: Hero is CO with 8, 8
    3 folds, MP2 raises to t560, 1 fold Hero??

    Reshove seems marginal, fold seems weak. What is the play?

    Hand 2, read is that villain is weak/tight. He just limp/folded pre vs a shorty when he was getting 2:1 and only had to call 1/8 his stack.

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, 28000 Tournament, 120/240 Blinds 25 Ante (9 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    Button (t23960)
    SB (t9818)
    BB (t2280)
    UTG (t2411)
    UTG+1 (t8943)
    MP1 (t7855)
    MP2 (t5975)
    Hero (MP3) (t3310)
    CO (t2096)

    Preflop: Hero is MP3 with 10, 10
    1 fold, UTG+1 raises to t1065, 2 folds, Hero??

    Once again fold seems weak, shove seems like its running into overpairs a lot. Play?

    Hand 2 is an easy shove for me.

    Hand 1 - I think you can make an argument for folding or shoving and I don't hate either.

    Hand 1 I would autoshove if he raised 3x but some people just always have a big hand when they raise THE POT instead of 3x. That being said it'd take one hell of a read for me to fold here.

    Hand 2 isn't even close (shove).
