Thanks guys. I find myself questioning everything I am doing as I am down close to 30 buy ins in the last 2 nights. I seem to be playing alright though, just bad luck I think.

It really looks like with almost everyone in Vegas the newbies have taken over all at once.

Not that it's always bad, but the polls and horrible advice this week are cracking me up.

I would only like to do this if I knew the BB was pretty tight. I would probably push and close my eyes until the next hand was dealt.

Why you are considered one of the most respected posters is beyond me. You give poor advice and demean fellow posters. At least citanul's advice is good.

All 5 spots have to be tight for this to be a profitable push. It is not an 'easy push'. You have 2 spots on this table likely to loosen their standards, shorty and BB. If there are any other loose spots you should fold this. If your read is everyone is tight (77+, AT+) then its a push. But even if they just loosen their calling standards to include A9, A8 and A7 then this becomes a fold.

I voted push, but it's very close, in my opinion. I'd prefer to have reads as to BB's looseness (i.e. - likeliness to call) to say for certain.

Eastbay's tool is useful, but as usual, you're using it wrong. The catch is that if you don't push now, you lose all FE after the next two hands. (edit: OK, 90% of FE then, and about 99% of it after the blinds go up, which will probably be before you hit the BB again. Close enough.)

If you want to call me out on poor advice I gave, that's fine, but pick a better spot.
