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 the SB who raises it to 1050
You are in the BB with ah 8h
Limited reads on SB. Has knocked out a couple of the players on the final table to build their stack.
What plays do you have here ?

I"m pretty sure I peel with the A8s v Leigh, outplay him post flop and don"t go broke when the A lands.
Anyone else, I peel, fail to outplay them postflop and go broke when the A lands ;D ;D ;D
But seriously, I think shoving is the best play here. SB can only really call with AA and KK and may even fold QQ (I wouldn"t though)

hmmm it seems odd to me shoving around 40bb"s in this spot with limited reads, especially since they have been on your right throughout the final table, add to that u"ve seen 2 showdowns... :)
it all ends up as -

I"d probably minraise vs you with the intention of snapping off a shove. Seriously Tbh folding might be better than r/f against someone who is going to do this in the bb

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 ?

Errrr, okay. You"ll have to jog my memory on that one. There"s no way I am calling with 8 6 unless the stack sizes can justify it. Clearly there are hard feelings, so sorry about that. ;D
