Default Level 3, over the top with TT?

Party 22.

Raiser has been tight. I have a good feeling he has AK/AQ. Do I push as a 55% favorite to double up now or fold?

Total number of players : 6
Seat 2: dubo3457 (895)
Seat 3: DohNutz (755)
Seat 4: Dr_Jeckyl_00 (705)
Seat 7: Hero (595)
Seat 9: discodollars (2070)
Seat 10: noaho9 (2980)
discodollars posts small blind (25)
noaho9 posts big blind (50)
** Dealing down cards **
Dealt to Hero [ Ts, Tc ]
dubo3457 raises (150) to 150
DohNutz folds.
Dr_Jeckyl_00 folds.
Hero?

With your stack size, I push this every time.

ALTHOUGH, with a "tight" player making an UTG raise, I wouldn't be super psyched about it.

Like Octave said, with your tiny stack there's not much to do but lose a coin flip.

At least I'm not good enough to fold this.

OK, now I am thinking about this a bit more. (Sorry, I hopped right on 2+2 after waking up after a night of drinking Chopin martinis. Gak.)

1. When are the blinds going up?
2. How did you end up shortstacked?
3. Have you seen villain call any pushes yet, and if so, with what?

I don't think it's nearly as clear as I first thought.

The most troubling thing, IMO, are the two biggies to your immediate left. You have no FE against them, so you are probably going to need to show them a good hand. So you can either build your stack and gain some FE, or pray for a good hand when the blinds jump. I prefer the former.

With a stack of 595, you can still hurt a lot of the other players.

Personally, I know that lately I have been trying not to "panic" as much when I am hovering at 10x BB.

TT is probably *just* on the threshold for me. I'd definitely push JJ+, AK without a second thought in this spot.

Man, I'm hung over.

You dont have so much chips left so if you think he has 2 overcards is it a good time to gamble.

Sorry, I didn't see your stack size. Should've been push. Keep in mind, though, that his range must include hands that dominate you unless you have evidence that he limps them.

How do you put someone on two overcards? I've always been amazed by people with this talent. Apparently, there are many of these geniuses on party poker. Someone please tell me the secret!

you have way too few chips to consider anything other than a push.

You get a knack for it after 3000 tournaments. Of course not always correct but quite often I am.
