    6 seated SNG Poker stars , 3 players remaining , 2 places paid , €6.00 + .60c.NLHE.

    BB aprox 2500, SB aprox 5000, me aprox 1500 chips. Blinds 100/200

    I deal myself
    A,8 o
    and put in 500

    SB folds

    BB calls

    I raised the 300 trying to steal as BB has regularly folded here when re raised especially as we're at the bubble stage.


    flop A, J, 6 , rainbow.

    BB raises 500 , I .....?

    Push, people love making donk bets on A high flops with nothing to try to fold out non Ace hands

    Edit: Also how can you raise to 300 when blinds are 100-200?

    The action in this hand sounds made up..:confused:

    the sb folds, the bb checks, you(the button i assume and first to act pre-flop) raise to 1.5 times the big blind... wtf?

    just shove pre-flop or shove now

    As said above when you have 10 times or less the BB then you need to push or fold Preflop raising with the intention of folding to the all in is very bad.

    not three handed you are raising here for value and will still see people call you with hands you beat, hands you dominate and hands you race if you are beat then it's unlucky oh yeah and as said with 7bb it's a monster

    If im reading your post correctly, you raise to 500 on button and BB calls?

    I would shove pf, you are likely to be ahead and add 20% to your stack if you just steal the blinds.

    As played shove flop, you only have 5BB left so top pair is a monster. BB could easily have a worse A,a J or 6 or air. If you are beaten here its just unlucky
