MP had been playing very LAG recently so I thought seeing a flop with 67s was a good plan. I was oop so maybe an argument could be made for folding. Button has been trying to get into pots with MP and has generally been outplaying him.
I was rly stuck here. I don't rly have any range on either tbh. They both could have anything.

Btw, I was 6/10 atm. I didn't know what 10th paid or what 9th paid. All I knew was 1st paid $8k.

So, I suppose, is there any magic maths copernicus?? What does everyone else think?
Thanks..

I would have folded PF, I hate playing little suited cards oop without leading the action, especially late in MTTs. With the call I think I'd shove here, you got top 2 and are likely ahead with a ton of money in the pot.

I would shove, but then again everytime I do this, they flip over the nut flush and I brick my remaining boat cards.

So maybe fold...idk...i suck.....

Definitely a shove. You're right that both hands could be pretty much anything given your reads on how they were playing at the time. You are significantly ahead of a range that includes anything. Most likley the button has a pair or a flush draw, maybe both. You certainly can't fold.

Also, fold pre-flop.

I'd have to fold here, you could be up against a number of things, if the button has been wanting to get invovled with MP, he could have anything from 5 4, or a set of 3's, or a low flush.


The only case I could make for pushing would be the fact that the button just wants to outplay the other player and he has absolutely nothing.. If you feel strongly that he was making a move, I'd push, but you don't have any range on the hands they play, wait for a better spot..

Oh, and fold preflop

I would shove. The OR could have anything and will C-bet this flop usually, the button has a rather large stack and based on your description has a wide range that he is raising this flop with as its very easy for the original raiser to have complete air or even be willing to fold a mid overpair possibly.

So based on this scenario I think that top 2 is going to be the best hand here a large percentage of the time. Sure the OP could have flopped a flush or the button may have as well but most players smooth call that spot. If you put in the 3rd raise here you may get a set to fold but probably not and I don't like calling here at all.

So I think you shove and you have the best hand most of the time with a ton of equity, if they show you a flush or set oh well but in the long run I think you get paid. Ship It Holla Balla

Ohh and with your stack size I would probably fold pre flop as well
