$22: UTG confusion
I really have no idea what to do here with the two biggies left to act. I'd put their ranges at 77+, ATo+ with what they'd been calling with.

Re: $22: UTG confusion
Raise 3X BB, see how it plays out from there.

If I fold I'll have 1570 left, 1370 after posting the BB the next hand. Assuming thats all bad news for me is this a push or fold situation? Blah. |

Re: $22: UTG confusion
You can't raise... Its a push or fold...and if the two big stacks know how to fold small PP..I'm definitely open-pushing...The BB will likely be all-in and AJ is crushing his range to be all-in.
The CO might be all-in this hand as well.... Side note: In these spots before - I've limped in and then usually gone for the re-push if the biggies limp and shorties push...but then folded if the biggies are tight players and push. Any comments on that play? |

Re: $22: UTG confusion
Eh, I'd push here. The big stacks aren't gonna call you with anything but the best hands and the shorties might come along with weaker aces.
That being said, this might only be minorly +EV (I am pretty sure it isn't -EV although I am playing and don't wanna run it thru SNGPT) so I could be wrong. |

Re: $22: UTG confusion
Hmm, I guess it depends on your read... I think you're fine pushing too, I've definitely done it with worse hands.

You have just as much leverage as anyone else here. Its close, but I'd probably push this...heck, AQ and maybe AK would fold anyway. Maybe not at a 22 actually. |

Re: $22: UTG confusion
You seem to have come around full circle on your line. Are you pushing this? BTW, I'm very confident on my range for the BTN, he's had over t2000 since the first orbit. SB may be a little wider, but he's just gotten his stack so its hard to say as he was playing more hands to survive.

Re: $22: UTG confusion
I decided pushing was a better option considering the blinds coming up soon.
