It's early... you like this push to avoid seeing a flop and pick up all those limpers' chips? Don't be afraid to call me a retard. I usually don't play NL or tourneys and I blow.
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (8 handed) converter MP2 (t1880) CO (t4120) Button (t1070) Hero (t1580) BB (t1350) UTG (t1000) UTG+1 (t1370) MP1 (t1130) Preflop: Hero is SB with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. UTG calls t20, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP1 calls t20, MP2 calls t20, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to t80</font>, Button calls t80, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t1590</font>...

I think I would push here too CO doesnt really need a hand to raise here due to his triple up and I assume(correct me if im wrong)his looseness was how he did this and the button probably knows this so is calling with a weaker hand due to his position,hoping they would both fold,just have to hope the button doesn't have a monster,that said a call i think would be OK here you can see a flop relatively cheap with a premium hand and play it from there not having committed many chips

OK, this was basically my thinking as well. Everyone folded, I picked up a couple hundred chips.
Just felt a little donkish to push on the first blind level... but the situation seemed to call for it. |

The push was horrible. The only hands that are really gonna call you are QQ,KK,AA and then AK which is a coin flip that you dont want. JJ isnt that great of a hand. Its pretty vulnerable. I would maybe reraise but I might just call behind.

Yeah, but what if I didn't want a call?

What was the buyin? I've recently started shoving JJ in spots just like that in the 10+1s and I'm getting calls from 66, A9, even KJ.

Sorry, the buyin is $5+.5
CO was raising a lot preflop and seemed loose. |

It's not likely that AK will call here, so the only worry is QQ, KK or AA. None of these hands appear very likely. So there's probably a 90% chance or so the all-in will pick up about 200 chips, and mabye a couple % chance of doubling up and around 5% or so of going broke. Averaging it all up, it looks like it's a +EV by about 150 or so.
If he calls to see the flop, that's no doubt +EV as well, but as much as pushing? That's doubtful. The push has a greater volitility, but it's hardly a terrible play. |

I don't like it, I think the raise is way too big. I would call, with my 2nd choice being a raise to ~t300 or so. I'd much prefer a call though because I'd hate it if someone pushed over me.

I don't think this is too terrible. But I think I would have reraised to about 400.
