Somewhat early push

[AliasMrJones]

Was 4-tabling and no good reads other than SB is tight and passive preflop and BB is loose and aggressive. With so many people left and pretty decent stacks all around I thought I needed to pick up some chips before I got too low. Thoughts?

Was BB loose-aggressive-bad or loose-aggressive-good? The better I think he is the more likely I am to push.

I don't like it. Too much risk of busting with the blinds still only at t150 and several hands before they get back to you. BB is going to have a very large range with his stack and your read on him, and that range will be a big favorite against your hand.

I'd wait and see if I get some more pushable hands in the next couple cycles.

I think this is a good push. You might not have a better stealing opportunity for a while. I definitely push here if the blinds are raising soon.

This is a pure math question. You need to put the remaining players on calling ranges and calculate your push equity and fold equity.

Well, duh, but that's kind of hard to do when you have 60 seconds to make a decision.

Right. But that's what you should be doing now, rather than posting the hand.

You didn't answer my question. SB is probably folding. If BB likes to play pots and is the sort "f this loser raising my blind" fold. If he is a solid, good LAG then he will likely fold knowing he will get a better spot later.

To be perfectly honest, I was multitabling and didn't have a good read on BB. The above is from his PT stats post tourney. Looking at his stats (88% VPIP 20% PFR) he could only be bad, but I actually didn't know it at the time.

I already ran it through ICM. I wanted to get others opinions and thinking.

The BB being both a big stack AND being loose/aggressive makes this a fold.
