Playing the $6000 gteed $5 buy in on BSQ last night. A mere 1665 runners. Okay 4 hours in, well in the money (lol). I was 20th out of 40 left with 45K, Chip Leader had 200K average was about 40K. Blinds just gone up to 2500/5000 plus 500 ante. Real money is paid to the top 5.
I had played a really conservative game all night, trying to avoid needless races, folding small pairs pre oop, and had only hit a river once ( I did have 12 outs).
I am in the BB with 96 spades, folded round to the cut off who is the CL ( recently lost a 100k pot) he min raises to 10k. Button and SB fold, there is 5k in antes 10k from the CL and 2500 from the SB plus my 5k BB.
What"s my move?

AMRN:
Tougher spot than it looks at first - if you shove, the CL should be calling as he is priced in...... and even though his range is miles wide, it is going to be better than 9 hi a lot of the time.

fold.

LongshanksED:
Unfortunely I"m a real odds fiend and find my self wanting to call this - if we were deepstacked!

But looking at the chips you only have 8-9 BB, out of position and even though the CO could be just trying to steal blinds and antes I"m sure there is there is other spots you can pick to shove and Hoover up the blinds yourself.

JamieCarra:
Fold - against a similar sized stack you could shove but CL should be calling everyday of the week.  Just shove next hand instead.

Roscopiko:
unless u have seen him raise fold like 100 times before in this situation it has to be a fold
