KK tournaments first hand. Whats your move?

(1/10) > >>

LongshanksED:
so 5k starting stack. 25/50 blinds. 8 handed.

UTG makes it 125. UTG is a professional who just came back from EPT snowfest and is basically out with his friends for the night and is known to lark about with all kinds of floppable hands, suited connectors and one gappers etc

UTG+1 is a decent player and likes to 3 bet light in position also with suited connecters (for local casino standards) and makes it 300

button who is never 4 betting light but can overplay small/medium pairs and AK/AQ makes it 800


were on BB with KK. whats the play? call or raise? if raise then how much?

my thoughts are obviously raise but i dont want to just shove and get everyone to fold but i want to rais in order to get at least one call or a shove from an overzealous ace or lower pair

Swinebag:
think you answered your own question with your reads. You are ahead of 4 bettor"s range so ship your 100 bigs in.

Marty719:
Yea shipping prob looks weaker than making it ~2200.

shozboy1:
dont think shipping is best move. Folds out trashy hands thats all.

Reraise to 2000. If you just flat call the 800 likely you"ll be playing a 4 way pot given the other guys" tendencies.

cbet/shove any flop that doesnt contain an ace

Marty719:
What do u think our perceived range is for making it 2k?
What do u think our perceived range is fod shoving?
