Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (3 handed) converter

Hero (t1965)
Button (t1730)
SB (t4305)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
Button raises t400, Hero goes all-in...

Thoughts?

In my opinion they are good enough for a push here. You may run in to a monster but I'm still going all-in.

no doubt that's worthy of an all-in. Did you run into something =[

i love it...now make me hate it...

i like the hand. I hate the miniraise....it smells funny. i would push if villan had been MRing recently. If he had been pushing or 3-5XBB raising so far when entering pots, I would prob call.

In that situation they are the nuts.

Well done.

btw - If the villian had pushed, I probably would've called with the snowmen.

That would've been my plan as well -- glad to know I'm thinking correctly.

Yes, a call. I'm not sure how he calls me with ATs, but whatever.
