Re: \"World Poker Tour: All-In Holdem\" Strategy Question
Maybe 95s has enough equity against calling hands that it's worth it to push all-in because even if called you are in okay shape due to suitedness.
With 95o, you want to raise to fold out the dealer, but if you move all-in, you don't fold hands that make up for the equity loss of putting in 5 more BB when you get called.
If you only raise 5x, the dealer will call with some hands 95o leads, like 76o. If you move all-in, you fold those hands and end up in horrible shape against the others. If the dealer isn't folding, it's better if you may be a favorite or at least aren't putting in so much money.
