View Full Version : Question on play when down to 2 players


11-06-2005, 10:34 PM
8 player SNG home tourney. Down to 2 players.

Chips are $1 each.

I have $65, villain has $335

Blinds are 5/10

I get K5 off.

I feel that K5 is better than a random hand so I push in my last 60 since I'm very short stacked.

Simple question - bad idea ? This is more of a philosophical question on whether or not you should push all-in when statistically you "should" be ahead - and I only had 6xBB left heads up.

Thanks in advance.

With the blinds that high and you're that short, K high is good enough for me.

I don't think it is theoretically possible for this push NOT to be profitable, at least not viewing this hand in isolation.

I think this was a solid play and I would have done the same thing. The blinds are going to chew you up if you dont make a move and try to double up. King-high is perfectly fine to move in during this type of situation
