2/5 completely lost on OTF vs 2 Recs
This hand just happened yesterday, I sat at a 2/5 table with a lot of fish in the table.
9players table, Hero is BTN w AsKc.
One limp, Fish 1 (260€ðŸ˜‰ with around 60vpip and 25 PFR makes it 20 in LJ, Fish 2 in HJ with really high VPIP (115€ðŸ˜‰ calls, I make it 65 (didn't even look at their stacks.. I would have made it bigger), both call.
Flop (202€ðŸ˜‰ 7s 4c 3c, I check, Fish 1 checks, Fish 2 goes all in for 30€.
Pot will be 260€ after I call and Fish 1 has around 200, I have 2 overs and a BDFD.
Should I shove here?
I think I can post hand results since this is mostly a math question, I shoved, Fish1 folded and would have won the hand with some QT..
Fish2 won the pot with 76o.

You don't really have any sizing option preflop other than jamming (which is awkward given the blinds are still to act). But it's a fairly clear jam. 65 is just a pot sweetener and commits HJ with very little flexibility against LJ.
Awkward flop situation now - you're not going to fold out better, so will you get called by worse?
I will get called by some hands that I'm still ahead or even like Ax Kx with FD, I will also fold hands that could improve on later streets.
I'm still against Fish 2 which is probably around 60/40 vs me in this flop.. its an awkward spot that I should have seen coming preflop.
Hero cannot be BTN and first to act otf ...
Anyway, this is a fairly standard shove preflop, unless both you and at least one of the blinds are very deep (150bb+ minimum).
Even in this case, you should raise way bigger, like 80 if you are BTN and 100 if you are SB.
As played, flop is whatever: I guess call and shove are pretty close.
Are you sure you weren’t sb or bb? Jam pre is +EV and no tough decisions. Make the game easy when possible.
