Is this a glorified bad beat post?

The pushes with AQ are automatic and the T6s is closer but probably ok.

[BradleyT]

Hand 1, add BB to your buddy list for being a moron unless he had AA or QQ (or TT if you've been overly aggressive).

Hand 2 with T6 is iffy. Remember with button pushes you have 2x the opportunity to be called so your fold equity is decreased. SB is low on chips so his range of calling hands is going to be pretty large. BB has you covered but still should be folding most hands here.

Hand 3 is fine. Yes you're UTG and have more opportunity to be called but with stack sizes so close they'd be a moron to call with anything but a super premium hand.


This is also a great lesson on why you need to play 8 gajillion SnGs for things to even out. This is just 3 hands....

moron to call with tt? come again?

[The Yugoslavian]

Hand 1 and 3 AQ is a monster...pushing is good.

Hand 2 I can't figure out if you are on the button or in the SB given the converter stupidness.

If on the button I'd fold...if in the SB I'm liable to push...I'd like to know who is in what position though first.

My guess is he's on the button with no SB.

1 Push, unlucky that the BB had something

2 Fold, I would go through the blinds one more time - should be able to push with something higher than a 10.

3 Push

BB was moron unless he HAD AA, QQ, TT.

If we're on the bubble with stacks like that and someone who hasn't been aggressive goes all in, I'm folding TT most of the time. I can wait for a much better spot to get my money in. If he's pushed my last 3 BB's while in his SB of course I'm calling with TT.

I have to ask ... whats wrong with KK and JJ?

Also, assuming hero is raising like he should. The BB can call much more liberally than you think (he has Hero covered by 1300 chips).
