I reraise all-in with A9... good move?
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (6 handed) converter
UTG (t1735) MP (t1620) CO (t1715) <font color="#C00000">Button (t1355)</font> SB (t470) <font color="#C00000">Hero (t1105)</font> Preflop: Hero is BB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t300</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, I push. I think the button doesn't have a hand, he just wants the blinds. I think he'd raise more with a real hand. $30+$3 btw. Now, I got called by QJo and lost. My questions: 1) Would you push here? 2) Would you push if you knew he had QJo? 3) What's the name of that program again which calculates how +/- EV a move is? That would help me here right? I'm still new to SnG's and I don't know much about what the right moves are on the bubble. I was shocked when I read that you should fold AKo if a tight player pushes before you.

[/ QUOTE ] Yes, thats true, but for the most part, you want your opponents to make mistakes against you. With the OP's example, if he was able to see his opponent's cards face up, he should always repush all in with hands that are stonger than QJ. |

if knows he's getting called, he should fold a9. you wouldn't call a push there as a 55-45, would you?

[/ QUOTE ] Seeing that my ITM percentage is about 39%, and this would probably put me ITM about 50% of the time, I think I have a pretty easy decision. The only time it would be right to fold this is if you think you will have a more +EV situation come bubble time. Btw, its more like 57-43 (56.88 - 43.12) |

I don't push as a resteal. I push because I think I have the best hand and think I will get called by a worse one.

Just call, and then push any flop.

Re: I reraise all-in with A9... good move?
I think it's fine to push here, especially with a read. A stop-n-go is another way -- but I don't think pushing is a bad line.
I don't even really think folding is a terrible line. This isn't a very helpful post. I guess I think this is a sort of marginal situation, and people could make a number of arguments for/against either a push, sng, or fold. I personally would push and fire up another tournament because i dont win 60/40s. |
