End game in satellite for a live event

<< < (8/16) > >>

With no info I fold.  No need to get involved with the only guy who has us covered.

I also fold to the shove in the initial scenario.  There are often sat qualifiers to these sats and it makes them weaker in general.  We can wait for a better spot.

Sometimes peel, sometimes fold. Only in exceptional cases do I 3betsmall/fold. Obv jamming would be bad unless oppo will fold ak and jacks face up lol

We"re 5 handed in a satellite for a live event. (Buyin $40)

Payout is 1st & 2nd = $250 seat, 3rd = $100, 4th = $60, 5th = $40

X - 7,000
Y - 7,000
Z - 7,000
SB - 16,500
BB - 15,800

Blinds are 200/400/50

Play folds round to you in SB and you are holding ac kd

You raise it to 1050

BB goes allin for 15,800

Limited reads on BB.  Has been in top two of chips since final table began, played minimal hands to showdown. (If that means anything)


What do you do ?

I"m putting BB on a weak A here, possibly suited.

Another scenario:

You are short-stacked, equal with two others, with five left in a two-seat satellite, when the two big stacks get it all-in against each other pre-flop.

Do you:

- start celebrating straight away?

or

- wait til the hand has played out in case it is a split?
