A2o super short stack behind limper (Party $55)
Treating this as an all-in from UTG, I get a call range of (55+,AT+,KQs (10%)) from a push range of (44+,A7s+,A9o+,KJs+), but the BB hits me in 3 hands and I'm not sure what other factors compel me, in this crippled state, to push. I'm surely going to be at least headsup whenever I enter the pot, so do I push here?

Re: A2o super short stack behind limper (Party $55)
I agree with you. You only really have 2 more hands to see before you will likely be multi-way pushing from a blind position. Your FE is squat, and even though you'll probably get called......don't know that you have much choice. Push this one & pray.

The pot odds are ginormous. I think there's even a chance that you might be ahead, if 'donk' limped with KQ or KT, which I think is very possible.

Re: A2o super short stack behind limper (Party $55)
What's the origin of this 'donk'? I've read 2+2 constantly and dunno where it came from. I just know I've heard "donkeys always draw" here or there. Is this a recent quote from some pro? Please enlighten.

Re: A2o super short stack behind limper (Party $55)
I was aware of that triple draw quote but did that line really originate from Hellmuth during that transcript? Wow, the power of that man.
I saw him at E3 signing at Yahoo! Casual Games. Huge line. Saw Antonio Esfandiari the day before playing there and he was pissed. The dealer/announcer kept making really really bad jokes and ribbing him. Cracked me up to see a magician/show-biz-personality sulking. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
