- Don't play the 6s, the rake is the same at the 11s.

- This is read dependant. You should take into account your being the 3d stack and the number of BB's remaining in your stack and when the blinds go up again.

- Pushing this is +EV. How +EV it is depends on the calling standards you've been able to ID through your reads. If they are loose callers, the +EV edge is huge.

- Standard push.

What?!? If they are loose callers, a push is way -EV. With a marginal hand (and often even with a premium hand), the last thing you want is a call on the bubble.

At the low level SNGs, I usually just fold this, because they call way too often (which I don't want) and don't push enough (so I have time to wait).

I like the way you've sorta become my personal proof reader. Its nice.

Anyway, this isn't a -EV push anyway you look at it. The margin of EV decreases the looser the calls but is still +.5% against any 2.

Sorry you misread what I miswrote.

Huh. Guess Q8s is stronger than I thought.

And there is almost a fifth of Hero's stack in the middle.

I still like finding a better spot, but I guess I can't really argue against a push.
