Well, personally I push the first and fold the second. I'm not sure I understand what Custer was doing here..

Looks like he had some specific reads on the blinds for these plays... shrug. Although, with all the tables he's playing, maybe not.

Nah in the first, I use poker grader so it automatically gives me their VP$IP and so forth, the guy in the BB was a solid player. I don't think he's calling with a wide enough range to make Q8o a bad push here.
