If you were late position, going all-in may be argued, but utg you have to fold this. You have enough chips to see another orbit of cards, and you'll probably get a more favorable situation, whether it's a better hand or less people to act.

If you were in the SB no limpers i would push this every time. If there was a limper would this be a fold?

Had that big stack folded before you i would maybe consider this, but given the situation, I think that big stack in the blind will be calling you, knowing that his chip stack doesn't take too big of a hit if he loses.

[/ QUOTE ]yes

the only time we can consider playing K9o w/ your stack is in the button if no one has opened.

You have 6x BB. That's getting there where you need to start pushing K9. I would very quickly push K9 in the SB with one limper, and maybe folded to me in CO.

Here, I think I lay this down, but I'm really trying to pick up chips somewhere here.

I think it's a reasonable push. I would fold on some tables and push on others.

Given that this is a 10+1, you are just too likely to be called pushing UTG. K9 is not a hand that wants a call. Even though you are low on chips, you have to fold this one.
