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.

Myst - Jman is wrong.

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.

First of all, who the hell are you??? Lol.

2nd, I dont evaluate things through ICM once it gets headsup. To me, its all about giving players chances to bust, AS LONG AS MY CHIP POSITION IS NOT HORRIBLY COMPROMISED.

Take that for what its worth.
