too aggressive to early?

[starvs]

This is in a 5+1 SNG on party. I'm not sure picking up the T50 BB is worth risking my tournament on, even though I have less than 10BB. Is this an easy push that I'm just over analyzing?

Allin was clearly correct, good job. Change your ace to a king and your six to a four, and it's still the same answer.

I would push. You have a better than random hand in a heads up situtation, you are short stacked, you have to take some chances.

You clearly have a clue of what ure doing, however there is one thing I dislike..ure paying too much rake /images/graemlins/mad.gif, move up to the 11s( make sure u have $330 /images/graemlins/blush.gif)

I just wanted to point out that there are 2 opps. to act behind you, not 1.

[starvs]

I would love to, and will ASAP, but I started with 50 dollars and now have 74 dollars (after various transfers and slight down swing). As soon as I get 300+ I'll be up there. I've played a few (by accident) and done well, there is really no diffrence, as I'm sure you know.

Thanks everyone for the feed back.

[starvs]

No, I was SB when I pushed, so only BB left to act. If I were the button though, with two to act behind me, would it still be a push?

[raptor517]

this push is absolutely correct. this 5+1 is absolutely atrocious. FORGET the fact that u might be playing a short bankroll. move to the 10+1s immediately. holla

[ReDeYES88]

the push is fine. ..
... a more relevant question that you may ask yourself is "how did i end up with t510 chips at this point in the game, forcing me to make this play that i find to be questionable". . .

[starvs]

Even the best player at the 10+1 could concievably drop 7 buy-ins, which is a risk I don't really want to take. If you feel like bankrolling me I wouldn't mind that.

I got so low so early mainly by a nut flush draw + pair that didn't quite pan out.

I guess I'm in the minority. Ya too agressive too fast, unless you know you can push the blinds off.

I like to play after the flop and bluff when I'm short stacked more the prf. It's easy for someone with 89 to see hope prf. It's harder when they have nothing and 9 high after. Just my opinion..but I call or wait for a better spot. If you get raised...well your right back to all-in anyway..

Cmon!! Sometimes you are simply going to lose some chips early in the tournament and there's nothing you can do about it. I hate posts like these that act as though clearly the OP has been playing poorly to be left with so few chips. It's as though no one has ever lost 200-300 chips in the first 3 rounds of a sit and go.

this is just plain wrong. you dont dislike 89 calling u here. at all. not a bad spot to double up in. holla

[JoeyJoJo Shabadu]

I think you missed the point. Play after the flop won't get a pure bluff called as often and your not as at risk as prior. I think i can figure ace beats 9... but thanks for the condescension.
