Default Re: Late stage strategy--11s and 22s

I think that generally, your strategy is fine. In your example, you need to calculate the value of AK. You will find that hands like AK are worth more pushing PF than playing post flop in the long run.

True. However, substitute KQ for AK. This would change the numbers, but not the philosophy. I see many guys who are pushing at times that make me scratch my head. I see guys pushing early for 90TC. I see players pushing so often that it no longer seems to be a thoughtful strategy at all. One time, a guy typed, "that works every time but the last time." Sure enough, he or I--don't remember which--busted the guy shortly when he pushed Jx or T9 and ran into AA. As long as I am above 8BB, I'm not pushing as a rule.
