($27) TT in the CO this time

[durron597]

The SB is decent. The BB is a solid multitabler that I am playing on two tables with and probably percieves me as solid/good, since I haven't done anything too donkish yet.

I prefer a push preflop.

Given the action, I think you have to call, but I wouldn't be thrilled about it.

I dunno, my stack is kinda big for an open push.

You have just under 12X BB, which is just enough room where you arent "desperate" to make a move. However, its not big enough (IMO) where you can make a standard raise and feel comfortable in your decision if someone comes over the top of you. I think in this situation, its a push or a fold. I think this is the value of the moves ...

1. Push
2. Fold (slightly less)
3. Limp
4. Standard Raise

Are you joking? I happily call one push, especially when people are often pushing with weak aces, small pairs, or worse. The problem is that I got two. If I open push I either get the blinds, or am a huge dog to AA-JJ, or AK calls, or occasionally AQ will call.

So these players will push with any Ax, small pairs, and other trash hands ... but when calling an all-in they are restricted to premium hands? You dont think with a push youll get called by a small pocket pair, Ax, etc?

I agree with you... but I hate these 10-15xx bb situations. Not enough to just shove, but too little to really manuever.

In the $27s yes, push ranges are much MUCH wider than call ranges in my experience.

Are you actually saying you fold TT before you'd raise or limp? Thats awful!

Curtains...come call this guy "weak tight" for me

[bigt439]

I like the initial raise and I fold when it gets back to me. Like you said I'll call one push, happily at that, but 2 is ugly and your stack is big enough that you can fold.
