HU, I have not had a lot of success pushing when my opponet min raises from the SB. Don't get me wrong, if I have a good HU hand (AT, KQ, 88) I will push and take my chances. But pushing a min raise with Q,7 or 89suited just doesn't work much for me.

Against an agressive opponent I'd rather push here, rather than call and wait for him to push on the flop. Q7o, 89s, to me are reasonable pushing hands when an agressive opponent raises. I gain a lot when he folds and when he calls, odds are, I have two live cards. I hate pushing with hands like A2 and K2, just because of the domination factor.

I have reasonable success, I keep my ROI around 10% for the 10-20 sng level. I'm by no means an expert and would love to hear what other players think.
