We are in the bubble of a 20€ tournament, min cash is 70€, pretty big bubble which i found weird but whatever.
Basically CO shoves 13 BB's, BTN has 4 BB's and both blinds have 9,5BB's, i have AQo in the SB.
Is this a call? I mean i'm for sure a equity favorite against his range but with the big bubble in play i'm not sure, i ended up calling and he had 66 and he won the flip.
PS: Maybe this is an outrageous post, i'm just not a tournament player :)

Hi guys, i am a Nl100 and NL200 cash game player that has beaten the games for some years now, i have had a period where i didnt play because of some IRL stuff and unmotivation.
I am now coming back to grinding and i feel i am playing somewhat bad and i'm not aware of my own overall strategy, for example i 3Bet the SB vs BTN open, it is now "standard" to 1/3 pot most flops my whole range after the 3bet, however sometimes i am betting 1/2 pot and including checks in my range. With this "confusion" or mixed strategy where i am kind of just clicking buttons and being inbalanced for sure, it's taking a shot at my mental game.
What should i do?

Hey guys, i was analyzing an hand from my last session and ran into a couple questions/thoughts.
Basically it was a 3bet pot,and he triple barreled,he shoves 1/2 pot on the river.
Board was 3c6sQh6dJh, so basically my question is if he is valuebetting AA,KK,65s,76s,AQ= 26 value combos
How many bluff combos does he need to have?

Hand starts with MP limp, i make it 10 on the CO, BTN 3Bets to 40 on the BTN, and i make it 100 w/ KK, villain calls, flop Ks7s3s, i c-bet 120, villain calls, turn As, i check/call 235 bet, river 2h and he shoves around 450.
Couple thoughts: I'm really not experienced playing this deep :Preflop what should my range look like: AA-QQ, JJ? AK and some Ax blockers, should i have AQs or AQo for value?
On the flop i obviously bet AK, KK,AA, QsQx i would usually check, so when i bet i never have the Qs or the Js
Turn seems like a obvious c/call i have almost pot odds and have implied odds for sure
River is where i really am struggling : "GTO wise" If i never have a spade then i should call with my best hands, KK and AA? I mean if villain is thinking high level it's such an easy bluff, however i also don't see a ton of bluff combos, every call on the flop has got to have a spade right? i guess KQs could be a bluff but that's one combo
Obviously the guy showed the 8To without a spade for the "white magic" bluff, gotta love it

You are not super deep, so the sizing seems too big, i would make it around 50-60, don't you wanna put some 87s,76s,65s for board coverage?

PORTUGAL, anyone else?
We are 1 player away from cashing, not sure about severe shorstacks though, is 88/99 a better hand than AQo
