2 Shoves Over Squeezes
Here are 2 hands I decided to shove because of all the dead money and being oop multiway. Are these ok or should I be flatting/4b smaller?

The problem with such gigantic raises is you blast all the worse hands that would call a normal raise right out or the pot even bad players will only continue with a very strong range. Don't be scared of worse hands calling and sucking out
Ambitious. I dont' think people squeeze enough at micros to make these +ev
