shove is just fine... you"ll be ahead most of the time. If not, then it"s just on to the next one.
Given the turbo format and the chips you have behind I don"t think you can fold here.

Shoving pre an option / better?

Kinda hated it at the time. Looks like 66-JJ, A10-AQ, + some junk. Feels like I"m going to get shown sets or JJ here loads.

OPR villain appears to be bad reg. I would discount a lot of 9x hands.

DodgyEnd (Tom APAT.be):
I think by shoving pre you would only be called by better hands or AK/AQ for a coin flip. Your stack is too big to shove it preflop. So the way you played it is just fine... and as I said, if he has you beat after the flop it"s just bad luck.

Stack Size is awkward. Just on the cur off point of being a standard raise/shove pre. I would not shove pre here but certainly would not hate it. Anything 5K or below is definitely a shove pre.

As played the pot odds do say get it in don"t they? Not actually sure what he has we beat mind but people always turn up with silly hands here so you are probably ahead more often than not. He should not have an overpair. But weird things really do happen on Pokerstar"s in MTT"s.

Actually he SHOULD have a set as it is the only hand that makes any sense (maybe JJ). Pot odds probably too good to turn this down though? I also have a rule that says I usually don"t worry about sets (it"s a bad rule btw).

I folded - on reflection, appears a bad fold.
