I'd stop n' go and hope my opponent is an idiot. Not sure if it's the perfect place for one, but it's gotta be better than just pushing.

And I don't see how you can fold this either.

You'll have T600 after the bad hand you get in the SB ... no one will fold to your push from that spot. So, you're not stealing anything and have 3 hands to get a hand.

Tough spot. But I just hate T6o. You have too much ground to make up anyway after the blinds pass, so I'd push here.

Stop and Go. I hate pushing too ... and can't fold. I can't see the promise in a stop and go though. It just wastes time [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

I'm guessing pushing PF will get the guy to fold .001% of the time while the stop and go will work about 1%.

DO IT. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Yeah, I do suppose you're right, and besides, that's a 1000% increase in chance of folding!
