Default Re: bubble push with k-10 200 sng

There is no way I'm not shoving 88 here. I think not shoving AJ here is insane.

No it's not. Pushing these hands could be very slightly +EV if the table is very tight. Shorty should be somewhat loose here and the big stack can pretty much call with any cards he 'thinks are pretty'.....if anyone here likes middle pocket pairs or big aces then you're f'ed.

Crappage. Anyone want to run this through ICM?

Just ran it through SNA and I may be advocating being a bit too passive here...but I'm not sure by that much. SNA cannot calculate the EV gained by the SB being allin with the BB almost 100% of the time here if you don't push.

If you put the button on 5% calling range, the SB on 20% calling range and BB on 10% calling range then Pushing the top 5% of hands (99+,AQ+,AJs) is equal or greater than .5icmEV.

However, I think one should be even tighter due to the extra $EV gained by folding that SNA does not calculate.

PS Where are Gramps and Lori to tell us whether limping a somewhat wide range of hands is good here due to the likely 3-way (and more frequent 4-way) action?
