    Default "One outer" Special

    Well, I don't know for sure if this qualifies for a "One outer" as we were All-in pre-flop.
    The reasoning behind my shove is that since SB is a rather short stack, he's probably shoving with a weaker ace than mine or a PP, in which case it's probably a coin flip 'cause I don't picture him with JJ+.

    Once the hands are revealed, I'm not too sure if I'm were I wanna be since I didn't see his PP as high. But then on the flop, I get top pair top kicker and I'm glad I pushed (yeah results oriented lol :P). When the turn comes, he's basically down to the last T since the T would give me the nut flush.... guess who gets invited on the river ?

    Button : Hero ($9.65)
    SB : ($3.90)
    BB : ($7.40)
    UTG : ($4.85)
    UTG+1: ($5.41)
    MP1 : ($10.25)
    MP2 : ($19.52)
    HiJ : ($4.05)
    CO : ($8.17)

    *** HOLE CARDS ***
    Dealt to Hero [A Q]
    Everyone folds, Hero raises to $0.35
    SB has 15 seconds left to act
    SB raises to $1.15
    BB folds
    Hero has 15 seconds left to act
    Hero raises to $4
    SB calls $2.75, and is all in
    Hero shows [A Q]
    SB shows [T T]
    Uncalled bet of $0.10 returned to Hero
    *** FLOP *** [Q 3 6]
    *** TURN *** [Q 3 6] [9]
    *** RIVER *** [Q 3 6 9] [T]
    Hero shows a pair of Queens
    SB shows three of a kind, Tens
    SB wins the pot ($7.38) with three of a kind, Tens

    I'm pretty sure 4betting AQs is normally a bluff, but maybe not at these stakes. If you can somehow put him on JJ- and AQ- then I'd use your FE and do exactly what you did. I'm not sure how you can just assume he can't have QQ+, AK here though.

    Well, this all-in raise was probably a bad play from my part. I'm not used to cash games and even less used to Rush Poker. As I said in another thread (Rush Poker : Preflop Re-raises) I saw people re-raising with a variety of hands on Rush Poker while I was assuming one would tighten up and not do it without a legitimate JJ+ kind of hand.

    I'm probably not shoving if the SB has a bigger stack. Then again, if I call and the Q high flop comes, should I put him on an overpair ? Calling his re-raise might have been the right move since I had position, but if I don't hit the flop, and he bets, I'm folding my hand which I was in no mood to do at the moment this occurred.

    The SB technically should have the strongest 3betting range in Rush poker. It's the last spot that could have "quick folded" and it's OOP. I doubt the majority of NL10 players even think about this or utilize that image, but good players are definitely aware of this. The BB should have the weakest 3bet range out of all the positions since they can't quick fold until someone open raises.
