2) All-in, but I can see getting a bit fancy here.
3) Overpush.
4) Hmm... All-in, somewhat tough, but all-in with 5x BB.
5) A3o from SB and 6x BB. Push! Faster! Harder!

Hey, Brim

I go . . .

1) push (I'm not waiting for the shortie in a 22)
2) 250 to go (you want action)
3) I'm pushin
4) Gotta push (if blinds go through you, you're dead)

Fold the kings. Push everything else.

Hand 1

Call call

Hand 2

Raise 300 and re-raise all in versus a raise or call a push

Hand 3

I push here, go for the win.

Hand 4

Push

[Newt_Buggs]

1. Its close and no reads makes this a very difficult situation. At first I thought call, but after looking it over I think that you have to muck- I just don't see how you can be ahead here and you don't want to call if you're dominated.

2. Push

3. I don't think that you can afford to get fancy with this hand-push

4. easy push

Man this position sucks. I think you're likely dominated and SB has a VERY strong hand (I'd guess KK maybe QQ), but you still are pot commited.

[lastchance]

Mind posting hand 1 by itself? It is infinitely more interesting than the other hands.

against some players this is a push with any two, with A2 this is an easy push even if your cards somehow got exposed.

The more that I look at the AJs hand the more I like folding.

Sorry man but I think folding is bad. His bet indicates so much strength (2nd chip stack with two shorties on bubble min raising big stack when he will be out of position on the flop) but unless he has aces I think you have to call. You're getting great odds so even if he has KK you're OK. If you fold here, I think the best you can hope for is to limp into third and to paraphrase Strass thats not good.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think that I even need to look at ICM to see that this is a clear fold if he has KK. Then again, maybe I should actually do the math.

[brimstone1]

FYI, I pushed all of these.

This looks like a pre-flop call to me. I'm not sure you have all that much FE (you do have some though) as there are so many chips in the pot. I think calling also maximizes the chance shorty will enter the pot which is ideal here.

On any Axx non-king board I'd be careful...but I don't think pushing the flop or even check/calling vs. a very aggro opponent is worse than pushing allin preflop.
