Default $55 Bubble: 77 vs Bully bigstack but small stack = 3BB

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t300 (4 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

SB (t850)
BB (t4445)
UTG (t1730)
HERO (t2975)

Preflop: HERO is Button with 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].

in the past Bigstack has re-raised allin to any raise by me or #3 stack.

push? raise, and call all-in? fold 77?

If you're going to raise, it has to be a push here anyway, you're < 10bb. So, it's up to you, how tight do you think his calling range is? It should be a push against most opponents, but if he's a total idiot who will call with -$EV just to spite you, then you can't..

I think this might be close, don't have SNGPT here either. but first thought is to fold.

No I don't have it here either.. but I reckon his calling range would have to be somewhere in the region of 88+, AJs+ for it to be +$EV, any looser and it's a fold. This is however a bit of a guess, it may be tighter than that.

Depends on the BB. If I was BB you should push here, as my range is pretty narrow considering you are the only one that can cripple me.

I have it in front of me. If the SB is calling top 26%, 22+,A2+,KTo+,K8s+,QTs+. In order for this to be +EV, the BB has to be calling top 16% or tighter. That's 33+,A7o+,A4s+,KTs+.

I would expect BB to be even tighter than those ranges. So pushing is good unless BB has shown that he loves calling with crap.

Why would you not want the bb to call with A4 or similar garbage? I would be delighted to take a flop against hands like this. Yea, I will lose sometimes, but I'm a pretty big favorite.

I would not be thrilled if the bb called me with two overs,
though. Coin flips don't excite me (yea, I'm still a small favorite, but not big enough to risk my entire stack of chips).
