Message: [QUOTE="TheBigFinn, post: 6151223, member: 120233"] Given the arbitrary nature of Villain's holdings shoving is at least break even. My question would be, "Why is shoving better than calling?" Hero is in position and the flop will either contain an Ace or King or not. If not Hero is behind and will hold. Hero will lose to AA, and KK. Shoving would only be the best choice if Villain is folding worse hands like QQ, or JJ to a shove. When BB 4-bets, it's a fold. Even if Hero is 50/50 against BB, SB will take some of Hero's win away. Best to give up 6 cents and conserve your stack for later. [/QUOTE]
