WPT GTO Trainer Hands of the Week: Staying Aggressive from The Button at a Big Final Table

Related Topics: World Poker Tour, Blind

The featured hands this week showcase correct play at the final table of a major tournament with significant payout jumps. There are two short stacks of 10BB and a 12BB at the table. You open to 2BBs from Button with a 30BB starting stack and a tough player in the Big Blind calls with 50BBs.

This scenario has several interesting factors combining to make this a challenging spot. With the tremendous odds the Big Blind is getting to call preflop here, their range is significantly wider than yours and also capped, as they would likely reraise with all of their really big hands.
