BB had been pretty tight, but I figured he'd have to call with any 2 in this spot. So, push with a less-than-stellar hand with virtually no FE or fold and get left with 415...


Total number of players : 4
Seat 5: CO (6010)
Seat 6: Button (2460)
Seat 7: Hero (715)
Seat 10: BB (815)

Blinds are 150/300
** Dealing down cards **
Dealt to Hero [ 3c, 9d ]

2 folds...It's the battle of the small stacks.

I actually fold here. You're right about the BB probably having to call any 2. Which is why I let one of the two larger stacks raise up their Top 50% hands, and hopefully get lucky and cruise in the money. This would change completely if you had anything, but 93o is just wretched. Q5, Kx, J9, etc.

If he is calling with any 2 this is a clear fold.

If he has ANY calling requirements (q high for instance) than it is a clear push.

I'd close my eyes and push T high here.

Well apparently SNG PT says that t5s+, t7os+ is a push here if his calling range is any 2.

I think your underestimating the amount of FE that you do have. I definitely wouldn't call it "FE-less."

Thanks for the replys. I pushed, BB called with T6o.
