It's a tournament, not a cash game. He had less than 20 bbs pushing from the cutoff into 3 midstacks. He had plenty of fold equity and ATs is a plenty good hand to shove in that situation. If he can't play ATs here, he can't play even more marginal hand and he will be blinded out really soon.

The idea is not to get called.

You guys don't have enough information to know whether it was a good idea, it's not only his stack size it's the stack size of the 3 dudes after him, their calling ranges and whether the button and sb would be pot committed to call if the sb/bb re-shoved. In the vast majority of cases where he has <15bb it's an easy insta ship in that spot. Just trust that Kiwi knows what he's doing in shove/fold situations, the logic/math is easy, it's estimating correct ranges that's the hard part and you can't possibly know that from what watching a stream that shows less than half the hands and has inconsistent stacksizes.

Looks like the blinds were 4k-8k, so he had about 18~ bb. He was probably thinking, "I have a strongish hand and I'm short. Don't wanna fold to a shove if I raise, so I'm gonna shove. Even if I'm called I still have good equity no matter what".

A good tourney player would probably make a 2x-2.5x raise there and fold to a shove, calling if the blinds were aggro.

Rebroadcast atm. Saw this hand last night.
Theory is when you know everything but nothing works. Practice is when everything works but no one knows why. In our lab, theory and practice are combined: nothing works and no one knows why.

Well, he was in late position wasn't he? It makes it less likely that his opponents after him have a better ace atleast and winning the blinds in that spot is just as good if not better.

Its not really bullshit. In a tournament situation with a shorter stack its more along the lines of "If I shove here, do I have good odds to take down the pot now, and in the off chance I do get called, is my hand good enough to have a bit of equity?" Position and chip count of both you and the players to your left and in the blinds are far more important than the cards you have in that spot.

This is why I could never be a poker player: I probably would have all-in'ed thinking, "I've already made a profit of $20,000 in a week." Good luck to KK in his continued participation in the tourny.

In the United States you can play on Carbon, which is part of the Merge network, but I wouldn't risk depositing anywhere if I were you. They do have some freerolls if you wanna start from scratch though. After all of the stuff on black friday, I wouldnt consider any online money safe as an American. :/ It kinda sucks.

The A10 shove is perfectly fine, I would be seriously worried about his ambition to do anything in the tournament if he had folded.

He had already made the money, and now the steps up the money ladder are so small for the next few hundred spots. He can fold almost every hand and make an extra few thousand, or he can shove in marginal spots with decent fold equity and if he gets called he has decent odds against many calling ranges.

You can't be folding A10 suited at that stage with no stack. You want to be in there, but you want a stack. If he folds he blinds out and ends up making the correct shove with a big hand later on, but only doubling back up to where he was.

There was no real decision, and it's not that debatable to be honest.
Jaedong. That is all.
