Result are irrelevant.

But could i consider wait a bit more option?
It was 17k or something guarantee so it's one of those bigger fields 5.5 2r1a on PS. I was on 50ish place out of 68 left in game.

Pretty sure i can't not push that, want to double check it :)

Shoving is my default play. It's +cEV and it puts maximum pressure on hands like Ax, small pairs, etc. that might consider jamming over a min-raise. Plus, I'd really wouldn't be too thrilled about raise-folding KQ with 11bbs. However, I do think there are scenarios where min-raise/folding (to everyone but the 40k stack) might be better....ex. is if tight, straightforward players are behind you that won't get out of line, or perhaps if you've been really tight lately, etc. Most players will give you credit for strength when you open in MP with 11bbs, so I don't think you will get played back at toooo often, unless your image is really LAG.

Most guys to my right was unfortunate very decent regs that plays above limits with multi digits profits, and they was very likely to 3bet play :/
Except that one guy who actually called mine push.

With all winning regs at the table, they could interpret a 2.1x or 2.2x open as being very strong. I guess it depends how the BB with lots of chips plays.

BB would most like call min raise. And play fishy line of check/call until i place my last chip. With almost any hand he find attractive (and thats lots)

I'm that guy who raisese in redic spots and i think tis a shove. we have to good of hand to min raise fold, in fact with blocker we almost get odds to call our stack once we raise. This is why I might min/fold k2o instead, because we know we can fold (although I prob don't have a min raise range in this spot).

But hear shoving is best, we have blockers and rarely get called,and when we do its often a pair or AX the we aren't too dominated on.

Shove and be happy about it, also learn use an icm calculator and also you are likely to tight at final tables and all around in your shoving. I say this not compared to my looseness but winning players in general will snap shove this.

I use icmizer, well thats why i snap shoved this. And i often regard anyone having monster hand like BB did in this hand as kind of cooler. As well as i usually run mine last pre flop AI hands in mtts in icmizer after session, to find out it was +cEV shoves. I guess i loss more money on those hands/spots when i find fold, rather then push in shallow 6-9m stacks
