KQo push from CO 5-handed?

[Meatmaw]

Is a push too aggressive here? I had showndown with a Q5o push from SB a few hands earlier, but otherwise tight.

Seems routine.

You take these blinds (or double through) and you've taken a clear lead over the other shorties in the hunt for the money.

Easy push. Dont you have eastbays program? I would suspect it gives this as a clear push against most reasonable ranges or am I wrong?

[Meatmaw]

I do have eastbay's program, and I did conclude that it was a sound push, but wasn't sure if I was missing some nuances. My onslaught of new posts is just an attempt to sanity check my plays in light of an 11-game OTM and 18-game with only two 3rds.

Thanks for your patience and feedback. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Nah if it says to push here, then it should be clearcut. I see you posting all the time at eastbay's forum, hence I knew you had the problem [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I think part of the goal in posting was to see if my perceptions on players' calling ranges were off (and thus my calculations using sga). Doing so badly for so long easily makes me review my assumptions. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
