($60) Meh
 

Button & SB are tight. Unless there is a push behind me, BB is calling with any two.

Re: ($60) Meh
 

This looks to be clearly +EV on the specific hand. However, metagame has to be taken into consideration here, as you're now guaranteed to show down a pretty marginal hand before the bubble, and you want to keep the FE from the players to your left.

Re: ($60) Meh
 

Eh, I fold. At best this is neutrally EV and I would like to think that I am good enough to not need to gamble in such marginal spots.

I hate myself when the button/sb wake up to a calling hand.

Re: ($60) Meh
 

Can anyone tell me why we are in such a rush to push K9o here?

Re: ($60) Meh
 

Looks like +$.3% if we put BB on any two and the others on tight. A while back I decided to work on elimating these kinds of marginal pushes from my game when I have a roughly 10BB stack. I liked the results.

Re: ($60) Meh
 

You summed this hand up in the title. Whatever. Push. Fold. Doesn't really matter.
