I've been playing tight and showed good hands. I was hoping for f.e. as well as villain messing around with QX or smaller pp (Of course there were quite some preflop pushes and some junk hands were shown). Villain had shoved in preflop 5-6 times and liked to min-raise on the button.
Was this unfortunately event that I ran into a better hand or I should had folded?
I need some helps playing SH (especially in the money). Thanks.

Full Version: Did I Make The Right Push?
1) Convert the hand
2) Don't post results. In fact, it's best if you don't post your action.

I think this is a fairly standard shove against an aggressive button player. You should have some fold equity, and you won't be in bad shape against either his raising range or his calling range.
On the bubble I would fold this, but in the money you generally want to be going for the win.

I'd probably shove here too, meh.
You're in the money and the low stack - against an aggressive player on the button who likes to min-raise, I shove also.
