Default Re: 5 Bubble Hands: How to Play\'em

The 1st two are clear pushes imo. In #3 and #4 I would either raise ~3xBB or fold. If someone else moves in I can get away from it while still having a chance to cash. I honestly don't know which of the two options is better. The only play that I don't really understand is pushing in that spot. In #5 I'm going with it. You are laying him 23:12 which should provide you with some kind of folding equity. Even if you get called everytime, it is only slightly -EV if he has any pair/AJ+. Since he figures to have an opening range larger then this, you are either provided with some kind of FE or you will be getting the best of it when the cards get run. Looks like a clear push to me.
