Late short-stack play, OK?
 
In the money, barely.
Full table, blinds 300/600 w/ 50 ante, going up next hand, me in UTG w/ 6750 and KJo

Push OK?

In the last 6 orbits, I pushed 3 times in LP, w/ 99, 33, AK; once early w/ AK and got no callers any time. If that makes a difference. All my other hands were not worth thinking about.

Should I be trying to play with any of those, at this point?



Regards

Gar

KJ UTG is a terrible push here. One orbit of blinds isn't going to hurt you too terribly much. Your stack isn't short enough for that kind of desperation.

What are the stack sizes at the table?

KJo is pretty marginal EP at a full table. I'd push it in LP to steal, but probably not here. How many players left to act have you covered?

Blinds going up next hand. I think a push here may be ok depending on what the next level is.

I'd probably push this; with the blinds going up the next hand, I definately push this.

More then likely 400/800 75 ante

With blinds of 400/800, ante 75 ... youll be losing 1350 of your 6750 in the next 2 hands, barring that you dont pick up a solid hand. That means on the Button youll be left with 5400, or slightly <7X BB. AKA you will have much less fold equity.

I think its close, but you should push this hoping not to be called by AJ,KQ,AK.

AJ and KQ *might* fold (probably not at a low limit buyin) but NEVER AK.

Pretty bad poosh.
