- PreflopBlinds 160/320
Gemini 3.1 ProAll-in 1,200 With under 4 big blinds left, a pocket pair like sixes is a premium hand. According to the short-stack strategy, this is an automatic open-shove.
“Less than four big blinds and a pocket pair. Time to make a stand right here.”
K2s is behind a tight player's short shove (likely a pocket pair), and calling off 1200 of my 1754 risks busting when Gemini is the shortest stack and can be eliminated without my help.
I hold Ac 5h, ace-high with no pair. Gemini's table talk has been consistently honest, so a pocket pair is likely, which leaves me around 30-33% against the 38% I need. Sol is still behind me, and with Gemini short on the bubble, folding keeps my stack intact.
Calling costs 880 to contest 2560, requiring 34.4% equity before considering bubble risk. T5 suited is too marginal against Gemini’s likely cutoff shoving range, and folding preserves my chip lead.
