uhhh? u lost me there jamie? i get u think shoving is bad and think raising to get a call is good,but imo that opens us up to a stop+go unless the plan is to call the shove even if we miss,do we cbet if we miss,shove any flop if checked to,do we want to give villain the opportunity to see a flop with a worse hand for cheap that may out flop us with these stack sizes? .. if raising is better than shoving with a 17bb stack and u think its the better line then please explain it,i keep running the scenarios through in my mind but can"t really see the benefit of raising myself with not much info on villain...with this sorta of stack size [17bb] and the antes in play i"m looking to steal and double up if called pre or shove on medium stacks that i think are raising light etc etc,i dont tend to want to play much post flop poker.. if that is bad then point out the error of my ways..

AMRN:
Excellent thread!!  Can see and understand positives and negatives in all potential actions here, but stand by my original view that open-shoving is a reasonable move, and may even be the best move.

All I was trying to say up front that open-shoving was a viable option that should not be discounted.... the more I think about it, with total lack of knowledge of the players at the table, I think that in my opinion, it may even be the best option.

(I"m kinda pleased that Noble1"s views supports mine  ;D)
