PokerStars Game #13750795159: Tournament #69782741, $3.00+$0.25 Hold'em No Limit - Level IV (50/100) - 2007/12/09 - 13:09:35 (ET)
Table '69782741 1' 6-max Seat #5 is the button
Seat 1: Villain1 (3030 in chips)
Seat 3: Hero (1130 in chips)
Seat 4: Villain2 (2500 in chips)
Seat 5: Villain3 (2340 in chips)

Dealt to Bankrollrupt [Kh Qs]
Villain2: folds
Villain3: raises 100 to 200
Villain1: folds
Hero: raises 930 to 1130 and is all-in

Is this a standard no no or a standard go go? Button has stats of 42/20 if that helps, but otherwise hasn't been out of line. How would you treat the hand if he shoved preflop?

Looks good, in my experience, a minraise here means weakness.

I dont have my HUD yet so i have no clue what those stats mean. If he shoves and you think you beat his range, then call of course.

Oh yeah, dont listen to me, I'm a donk. I'm interested in what the others have to say. *grabs bag of popcorn*

 Those stats mean it's an instashove UNLESS this is the first time you've seen him min raise. Generally it's best to be the first in the pot with a raise, so folding this (if he never min raises) is probably fine.

If you're changing your HH to get rid of player names, make sure you change all of them.

You left that in and it made it confusing. Also, you should try to make it more clear that the button was the villain (so that the info you give about the player can be applied right away). People are more likely to help you out if your posts are clear and easy to read.

Hope to see another post soon!

This is a definate shove over for me, but I would be tenative if it is his first time minraising like courtie said.

KQo is about 48% against 20% of hands (which we can assume he is raising here, he should actually be raising a little wider). Add that with the FE you have means definate shove over.

Don't be afraid to visit the SnG forum too!

Shove over seems fine to me too given opp's stats and the fact that he's minraising from the button. You have good fold equity here too and the only hands you're really in bad shape against if you're called are AK/AQ and QQ+.
