Key word: "SEMI". You may well have the best hand. Pretty standard play I would think. With your stack, I like the play here.

i like it.

any thoughts on that guy 1kydstare? i see him a lot.

I don't know why, but my initial reaction isn't all-in. That's just the gut feeling. Thinking about it, with the weakness that they are showing, and your chance to pick up some blinds, it could be a good move. But your stack isn't in any trouble yet, and I think I'd probably just call here. With at least 2 and possibly 4 players in this pot, I think you've got some good implied odds to hit that low set. With the added position bonus and the chance of somebody eliminating the big blind, I would call here and try to keep as many people in the hand as possible, especially if it's cheap. However, I wouldn't be surprised if someone proved me wrong.

this is an easy push and not a PVS

Add t175 or call of t50 to hit a set?

I like +30% to our stack w/ a showdown or winning a coinflip w/ dead chips rather than calling off almost 10% of our stack.

Do you really think this is an easy decision? I agree that picking up the limped pot right now is tasty, but then again it isn't costing that much to see if you can pick up a lot more. If his stack was maybe 3BB lower, push absolutely, but with a little more room to work with, I don't come to that decision easily. I like both ideas and I think it could go both ways. Again, I'm not saying pushing is wrong, I'm saying that I don't think someone can say that calling is wrong. Am I way off?

Saw him make a real interesting all in call with 32o. Was a good call, I think. He was getting a little better than 2-1.

Easy push for me, there is more money now than there will be with no limpers level 3, and you would push this hand if it was level 4, so take advantage of the extra added money and the fact that your line seems stronger to villains. Pooosh

PS: not a PVS at all

He must be a 2+2er... or has learned the art somewhere else. I've played 4 tourneys with him today. He pushes any 2 in proper situations (I sat to his left and caught him). Solid, tight early game. Smart aggressive late.

FWIW, i think calling is the worst option here. id rather fold than call. its just too much of hero's stack to invest for set value.

btw, getting in a race situation here with some overlay is not a bad spot to be in AT ALL.

Nothing of value to add, just wondering what PVS is short for?
