I think this is a push, the pot is like 25% of you stack and you will be able to pick it up a decent portion of the time without showing down a hand. Sucks if somebody limps in EP with 99-JJ though.

3 limpers and 3 behind, I would limp. A push is probably going to get a call from somewhere a majority of the time (what's the buyin?) and at best you're going to be up against overcards. I wouldn't be desperate just yet.

What percentage of the time do you think a push is going to get a call here?

100%. 1000% if they know your 2+2'er

I think either play is fine. I don't like pushing for any reason at level 2, (Unless I have AA or KK and I'm sure I'm getting called), but with your stack it seems alright.

really? i'd expect 2+2 to push 88 and raise AA to 130, so i'd be more inclined to call a 2+2 if i'd limped 99 utg. they don't know i'm 2+2 though - i keep my screen name a well-guarded secret [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

this is a 33, btw.

push. sooooo much money in the pot. hope if anyone calls you it's overcards...or 44.

Limp. The first three positions limped in which is scary and I feel that your stack is still big enough, making the risk not worth the reward. Also I think the blind level is one too small. If the blinds were at 25/50 then I would probably push.

a mild overstatement at best. i'm guessing 50% max.
