Party 10+1 NLHE SNG

I haven't really been stealing much. But if figure...hey why not try now. Too loose?


BB is t200

Seat 2: HERO (1580)
Seat 3: SB (2125)
Seat 7: BB (1095)
Seat 9: UTG (3200)


Hero Dealt 4/images/graemlins/spade.gif K/images/graemlins/heart.gif

UTG folds.
HERO raises (700) to 700
SB folds.
BB raises (895) to 1095
BB is all-In.
HERO calls (395)

looks fine to me but I would have pushed all in because you have to call the reraise anyway.

Just push preflop.

i'm not terribly fond of stealing from the short guy here, though your hand is probably good enough to do it. i don't know what the calling standards are for someone in that spot in a 10+1, but yeah, i get more scared of stealing from people as they are short stacked, and at the lower stakes games.

the biggest error you made in the hand was not pushing and instead raising a silly amount.

Theres no logic for not going all-in here, I love the steal..I think any K its a push in similar situations even in the 11s
