[Finishing up my weekend long Turbo experiment - $55+5 on stars]

No-brainer eh? Villian just got rich the hand before...looks easy enough. If you agree...what Ace is not so easy? I'm all about being the pusher vs. the pushee, but when time-is-a-wasting...how strong do you need to be to push over the top here?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (5 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

MP (t4558)
Hero (t1125)
SB (t1168)
BB (t2650)
UTG (t3999)

Preflop: Hero is Button with A/images/graemlins/heart.gif, Q/images/graemlins/club.gif.
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t600</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t1125</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, UTG calls t525.

Results in see-through color (ooooooh):

I like this play when you are one of the shortstacks. Trade stacks with BB, UTG, or MP, and I fold here without a big hand (AK or big pair).

I think I would have done this easily with AJ+ and 77+, and maybe some other hands.

I just have one question for you bluefeet. Does it work?

[bluefeet]

the manhood or the experiment?

I sincerely hope you're not thinking about folding this in a turbo.

AT is borderline for me. KQ is a fold. 66 is a fold.

nope. wasn't gonna. i was more interested in what others might view as 'the cutoff' - thx!
