Why the shove?

[baydonvic]

saw the flop and the fact i had the lowest chips

[trishan]

Why the shove?

LMAO - was thinking the same thing. What better hand folds and what worse hand calls...

You have about 20 effective BBs - not push/fold mode just yet.

[Garth Kay]

At these stakes I am always concerned about a min raise from UTG.

Did you want to discuss this hand Baydon? Or just post for posterity, always good when you crack aces.

Off topic - but what happened to starting a thread abt yr Vic Champ experiences and interestin hands?

When do you play next? Will come down and rail...
