Back to your push. If we give BB any credit here, assigning him the calling range he SHOULD consider, your A6o becomes a very clear push. Even giving him TT+,AQs+,AKo, we get to push 22+,A2+,K6o+,K2s+,Q8o+,Q2s+,J9o+,J5s+,T9o,T6s+,96s +,86s+,75s+,65s,54s

This idea makes sense, however is it acceptable to give an opponent a calling range which you personally find reasonable? I think the player should put a range of hands that his opponent is likely to call with based upon his style. If he's likely to call with much more variety of hands, then I believe this push is -EV, as he is putting himself in a marginal position on the bubble when he is not in a very desperate situation.

Certainly. That was kind of the point of some of the scenarios. I DID make a leap in my conclusion assigning what I felt were 'reasonable' -- may not have been the case of course.
