Should have just quoted me Garth. :D

I shove fairly wide when I'm at 10BBs.

So even at 5bbs you wouldn't put this in UTG? Assuming you are nowhere near the money bubble, FR table.

Im probably more likely to shove here with 10BB than with 5BB. At least you still have some fold equity with 10BB, and a shove UTG for that much will only be called by premium hands.

With 5BB, you know 67 is likely to be called by a biggish range, so i would have probably started shoving before i got down to 5BB, but assuming we had just lost a pot that left us with this much, then it becomes a tough decision.

Shoving 5BB with 67 OOP, or shoving 3.5BB from the button. Its a toughy, but because we are so short, it almost makes waiting for the button or cutoff a better option. Does anyone else agree with this?? I guess table dynamics are important too though. Are you likely to see a flop for free with your BB in the next hand??
