Default Re: 82o on button 6xBB

well,call me crazy,but i'd love this position,any time it's folded to me on the button,and i'm short,those chances don't come along often for the short stack,so i'm pushing most often here,and actually would rather 2 live cards instead of a hand that can be easily dominated/common card,chances of being called are by big aces,unlikely a pair in the blinds,so 8-2 plays decent there.
i got myself to a final table last night with a similar play,opened all in on the button with 9-4 short stacked,and called by sb with aj,won,and got myself back in it.
most often blinds fold and you pick up valuable chips,that will give you more fold equity and a better double up if it comes in the next revolution.
