Is this a pretty marginal push or standard?

I make this push if I'm tilting, but it's probably not a great idea.

borderline - I really prefer to play small pairs for set value, but I can see pushing....interesting......

I don't like pushing that into 5 players.

Sixes start to become my borderline area. I would push with 77, 66 becomes read dependant for me.
55- is folding.
Calling here for set value is beyond bad
Yah I agree, I would push 88 without thinking and I might wince and push 77 but these 66's seemed to reside solely in the gray area.

OK....so if calling for set value is beyond bad, and 6's are too low to push....raise 3x blind?
Or what?
Don't think I'm folding.....like I said, it's interesting.

It's a tough spot but you do have a lot of fold equity as well. I think it's a push for me, but yeah, this is very close.
If you are going to get involved in this pot your only choice is to fold.
If you raise 3xbb you are forced to call a push due to pot odds. Max FE by pushing.
I usually push here as well.

I would like to know if this is also standard, however.

Standard for me. However if I had 1450-1500 I fold, and if Im one seat further away I fold.

tigerrite that is clearly standard. Anything other than moving allin there is terrible IMO.
Yah, if I was in mp I wouldn't ask. It just seemed that with my exact stack size and my exact position on the table I really didn't feel comfortable with pushing or folding.

That's what I thought, just the min-raise crap is always a bit of a strange one. Never quite know what to make of it, other than he's probably a bit of a donk, but he hadn't played like that up til then.

For me 66 is not that tough of a fold, 77 is a tough fold, and 88 is a somewhat tough push.
I want to punch people who min-bet/min raise in the face.
I also hate people like this.

And those who call all in with A4s for no apparent reason, but I hear you. Then suck out on your A8o, and leave you knacked and finishing 5th. Anyways, he had TT in the hand, so it wasn't a bad beat of any kind, but why the hell he didn't just push, I have no idea.
