Good hands to steal the blinds with
 

What hands do you like to use to steal the blinds with when you at the money cut off line, 3 way and heads up? Also what is the proper amount to bet to execute this?

Stevo, you're not going to get many replies to this because it's simply too broad a question.

Depending on the stacks, the raise might be all-in or minimum.

Depending on the stacks, I might steal with 93o or fold A9.

Depends.

Well to steal on the cutoff I prefer AA, KK isnt bad either. 3way I also prefer the good ol aces and then kings. Heads-up u have to love aces and kings. the proper amount is all-in.
I have a feeling u wanted pushing ranges ... go to the twoplsutwo magazine and u will find a helpful article.
