    Default 99 bb to raise and shove

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, 6.5 Tournament, 25/50 Blinds (8 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    Button (t700)
    SB (t1430)
    Hero (BB) (t1385)
    UTG (t2815)
    UTG+1 (t2795)
    MP1 (t1395)
    MP2 (t1630)
    CO (t1350)

    Hero's M: 18.47

    Preflop: Hero is BB with ,
    4 folds, CO bets t125, Button raises to t700 (All-In), 1 fold, hero??

    think this was first time co was raising. 2 hands previously button, when in the bb, had called a shove of ~ 700 with a4. this could well be a tilt shove by him.

    I would say fold. if this is SB's first raise, chances are he has decent holdings. if he saw BB make that previous shove, then he would probably play cards that he would be willing to go that far with vs button's maniac tendencies. so chances are he's going to play. though i suppose you still have the option of rr all in to isolate the button, but with 8 people still at the table, it seems like a pretty risky/marginal play.

    seems a little risky but if you have good enough notes/reads on him it might be profitable. Especially if this SNG is turbo you want to step up and take advantage early if there's opportunity.

    I'd just let this one go and move on. With 14x BB Button isn't yet totally desperate to have to shove here.

    If Button hadn't shoved however, I almost certainly would.

    need reads, if he's likely on tilt i'd call
    (say, from losing a cold deck or cooler on last hand, i'd call).
    Playing big pots at small stakes.
