    Hi Chip! Nice video! I do have some questions about some spots: 17.11sec : J9 hand: Isnt this hand only Shove or Fold? Due to 2players with less chips at the table. 16.19sec: Q7's: What you do when folded to here? min r/ F or shove ? 22.15sec: 77 : Isnt a shove with 77 here the best play, and what would be bottom of our range here? If we shove we fold out AT, KJ maybe even 88 etc. So 77 is a clear shove. 23.47sec: Q6'o: Shouldnt we shove here? There are 2 players shorter than the BB so we should have enough fold equity against a tight calling BB? 49.42sec: 78's: Isnt this a shove spot we should take? Even with the SB being that short? We have 11bb stack. 49.50sec: K8's: Isnt this hand a snap call vs the range of a good reg? Knowing K8's should be ahead lots of times vs his shove range here? Thx!

    Thank you very much for reviewing these, Chip. I really appreciate it! I'm going to watch the vid a couple more times and make some notes.

    MrKell, 17:11 J9o. The reason I would suggest completing here is because I don't think it's a profitable shove, and I also don't think tje BB will raise too often, and we're getting really good odds. If we had 10bb I'd just shove it, but I think I'd rather complete than fold against an unknown player. 16:19 Q7s. If folded to me here I'd fold, I don't think it's profitable to shove given that the SB/BB have 9 and 10BBs. 22:15 77. Shoving here would be a very bad play because the BB only has 150 chips behind and it's the bubble, with 3 players left to act after us who have more chips. If we had the chiplead it would be a clear shove, but it's an absolute disaster if we get called by one of the players with more than us. This is really weird hand because of the microstack in the big blind. Because we're covered by a couple people after us, we have to shove much tighter than normal. I think it's best to just limp almost all of our range there, even AK or 99. 23:47 Q6o. I don't think I'd shove there, but you're right we should definitely minraise. I completely missed that it's the exact bubble here, and with the stacks in the SB and BB, raising is definitely the best play. I think I'd make it 1300 and obviously fold to a shove. 49:42 87s. I definitely would not shove there with 5 people left to act and 11bb. I think it's much to weak to shove with that many people left to act and with that much equity. 49:50 K8s. After thinking about it for a while I'm talking myself into a call here, but only because MI_turtle is shoving crazy wide here. Agaisnt most regs I would never call here, but against people who you know shove really wide with 8bb from the CO, it can be ok. That said, most regs don't fit into that category, so tread very carefully.
