I think most of you are familiar with MJ's article about blind stealing and I was just curious as to how this applies to situations where you are not heads up against the BB. I know you should be pushing a lot of hands if you have 10BB or less, but what kind of range do you use for these pushes? For the most part I have been successful with Any PP, Axs, Kxs, A6+, K9+, Q8+ as well as a few mid-sized suited connectors. I am pushing most of these hands in late position and the better hands in any position. Granted I do not always push with these hands. I'm not going to push Q8o against a guy that just called an all in with K5o and I am going to push ATC against a BB that is super tight. But as far as general guidelines goes, does this sound about right? Any thoughts appreciated. Thanks!

The article is just really a simplified version of ICM, it's not wholly accurate as it only takes into account cEV I believe.
