Is this an easy push 100+9 SNG on the bubble
I apologize the converter failed me.
Here is the hand 4 players remain. Blinds are 75-150 Hero picks up A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] UTG I see this as a great opportunity to steal. I told my friend he should bring it in for a raise 3xBB if not open push here with this hand. He mucked it saying A 6 is to weak. While I agree A 6 is generally a weak hand. With 4 players I think it becomes playable especially on a steal attempt. Currently the stack sizes are Hero (1860) SB (4355) BB (1500) UTG+1(2325) Given the BB is the other small stack I think stealing here becomes that much more important. If the big stack was BB I would consider folding this depending on how Aggressive he was. But generally I argue A 6 is playable to a raise when it gets to this juncture. Thoughts? Let's Discuss. Thanks in Advance |

I'm not liking it. You say 4 players remain, so UTG is calling with what? Ace 6 is playable 4 handed with a raise maybe here if UTG folded, but with all the players still to act I'm not sure. I would definetly push here if you were ITM with 3 players left, but I think you should wait for a better spot.

Part of the reason I like bringing it in from a raise here is the fact he was UTG. Geherally people respect raises from this postion a lot more. Again, I think A 6 is bad but with the postion im in, by that i mean a not blind stealing postion, people will have to wonder if I really have a hand. On the button this becomes more difficult to execute because very few people respect the raises and they tend to reraise with little. I like raising here because i think more than 50% of the time I pick up the blinds here uncontested.

I like the raise here in the situation too, but what is utg limping in with here is what I'm wondering. Is he a trappy kind of a player that might be looking for this kind of play or has he limped in with marginal hands before and folded to raises. I guess it depends on your reads of utg as most likely the blinds will fold.

raising to steal, perhaps. . .
. . . push? there's really no reason with the blinds at 75/150 and your stack at ~t1850 holding A6s UTG |

I read his HH wrong the first time. I thought blinds were 150-300. If that were the case I would open push. But here I raise and try to steal. Sorry I didnt catch that till later since the converter was broke. Then I reread it.

i think this is an absolutely terrible push. no way im throwing in 1850 chips to get 225. not a chance ever ever ever. you should be careful about even shoving AJo here. holla

I meant steal. You wouldnt raise here? Also if blinds were 150-300 I think it is a push? Thoughts?

This is actually Mauliks hand. I was reading his HH and told him he should bring this in for a raise. And push if blinds were 150-300. I think at that stage it is a good time to push since he would still have FE. Thoughts? He is done there Holla if you see them. I would have gone but the leash got me. New Years is my next trip to Vegas..... |
