think you have to check too here...the ace is likey to have hit one of them.

if you bet and the button folds, if bb check raises you have to call. but you have outs i guess.
given that bb called when oop and short stacked i think a check raise is more than possible with his ace 6.

also i dont play 6 man but i wouldnt open with kq from utg. if you did because youre chip leader or with reads theyre tight than fair enough.

it's a 9-handed tournament, 3 KOd so far.

check, see what happens. If you're ahead giving a free card is fine.

what are your stats/reads on opponents? i c/c i think BTN will be shoving wide enough to call since the pot is ~85% of his remaining stack, if BTN shoves and BB calls i let er go. most of the High aces would of just shoved pre.

Normally I'd dump KQs from UTG but since you have the monster stack it's not too bad I guess.

As played, this is a clear check for me, particularly with two opps in the hand and one still to act.

[baudib]

do you guys feel like we're folding if btn or bb shoves?

[fulksy]

I'm only folding if btn shoves and BB calls. if BTN shoves and BB folds im calling

[baudib]

can i represent a nut range on this board better by checking or betting?
