too aggressive to early?

starvs · #1 05-18-2005, 10:14 PM

This is in a 5+1 SNG on party. I'm not sure picking up the T50 BB is worth risking my tournament on, even though I have less than 10BB. Is this an easy push that I'm just over analyzing?

Seat 8 is the button
Total number of players : 5
Seat 6: bicepbro2 ( $805 )
Seat 2: pollackdb ( $1773 )
Seat 10: starvs ( $510 )
Seat 5: DACOACH70 ( $2642 )
Seat 8: AngraMainyu ( $2270 )

Allin was clearly correct, good job. Change your ace to a king and your six to a four, and it's still the same answer.

I would push. You have a better than random hand in a heads up situtation, you are short stacked, you have to take some chances.

You clearly have a clue of what ure doing, however there is one thing I dislike..ure paying too much rake [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img], move up to the 11s( make sure u have $330 [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img])

I just wanted to point out that there are 2 opps. to act behind you, not 1.

I would love to, and will ASAP, but I started with 50 dollars and now have 74 dollars (after various transfers and slight down swing). As soon as I get 300+ I'll be up there. I've played a few (by accident) and done well, there is really no diffrence, as I'm sure you know.

Thanks everyone for the feed back.

No, I was SB when I pushed, so only BB left to act. If I were the button though, with two to act behind me, would it still be a push?

this push is absolutely correct. this 5+1 is absolutely atrocious. FORGET the fact that u might be playing a short bankroll. move to the 10+1s immediately. holla

ReDeYES88 · #9 05-19-2005, 08:34 AM

the push is fine. ..
... a more relevant question that you may ask yourself is "how did i end up with t510 chips at this point in the game, forcing me to make this play that i find to be questionable". . .

Even the best player at the 10+1 could concievably drop 7 buy-ins, which is a risk I don't really want to take. If you feel like bankrolling me I wouldn't mind that.

I got so low so early mainly by a nut flush draw + pair that didn't quite pan out.
