Default Re: Heads-up ...losing faith in my play

All of them look good except

"5. Blinds 250/500
I'm in SB w/ 5Ts, 8900 chips...I push"

I fold this unless I think there is a chance he folds to my push, which there shouldn't be.

Jman is wrong. Push all 5. 3 is good b/c an ace is the best hand 90% of the time headsup, and the blinds are just too damn high. 5 is a push as well b/c the BB still may only call with the top 70% of hands, and if you are called its like rolling a dice with you only having to hit a 5 or 6 to win.

Push all 5.

Can't push #3.

Jman - I fold this unless I think there is a chance he folds to my push
Myst - Jman is wrong.
- 5 is a push as well b/c the BB still may only call with the top 70% of hands

I think Jman said that he pushes if there is a fair chance the villain will fold some hands. So, you are wrong about him being wrong.

and if you are called its like rolling a dice with you only having to hit a 5 or 6 to win.

or like getting all in in poker with a hand likely to be the worst. Whichever analogy works for you.
