Preflop play.

Usually don't play this low stakes (0.55 bounty builder) But a bad day and just wanted to unwind with a beer and music and chill.

Progressive KO Early stage Blinds 125/250 38 ante

Villain UTG 13,287(53BB) 52VPIP on 33 hands (very small hand size)
Hero CO 13,600 (54BB) JcAs

UTG shoves 13287 folds to hero.
Hero???

From what i've previously played with this guy 3 bet all in pocket 33's and when i joined the table he had 40+ bigs, he recently doubled me up so could be tilted ( 2 hands ago).

I tried to come up with some serious bullshit to make myself call because he seemed so weak from previous hands, and i thought his range was so wide but i felt that it was too much to call.

I folded eventually and then busted him 4 hands later with AKs against his shove again and he had KTos

Villains range is very wide there, but not sure how much you want to commit that early. KTos just shows how wide that range actually was. I think this is a good fold, just shows that hes a tilty mc-spewy especially with a 52% vpip. Not sure if more seasoned MTT players can justify a 50~BB Shove for their tournament life but I too would like some insight.

With only 33 hands, AJo is an easy fold. Although his play is fishy, he could be on a heater. You would be coinflipping with a lot of pockets or be behind. That deep its not worth to gamble it up. You bether wayt and snap him of untill you get a strong hand (as you did).

Nice fold!
