Stacks roughly 4k (me), 2k, 2k, 2k.
Blinds 200/400. Me UTG with QTs. My image is becoming ever more maniacal but these guys still aren't calling with trash. Do you push this one or let it go? |

![]() Elementary push, not even close. Even if you are seen as a huge bully you absolutely must push here. |

I'm going to the felt. Everytime I was in this spot today I saw 93o and 84o (maybe that is what playing for 14 hours straight will do to you)

If we limit thier calling range to 77+,A9+ you make $3.57 in EV for pushing 32o all in.
If we loosen up to 22+,A2+,KQ,KJs you are still making $1.23 in EV by pushing all in. I could easily make a case as to why thier calling range would be the tigher one based on the fact that they don't want to go out in 4th place and they can afford to lay down the blinds. |

[/ QUOTE ] OK, thx. I think the latter range is far more realistic. Are you saying I make $1.23 pushing 32o or pushing QTs? And is this Eastbay's programme you;re using? |

Yes, eastbay's program.
Yes, the $1.23 is based on Q10s. I would make the case that at 109 the calling range would be the tighter one. While I think KQ/KJ are more likely to call I think hands like A2o and 44 are going to have a very hard time calling. Remember, even if he puts you on any two those hands represent a coinflip. When you consider that the payout for 4th is nothing and 3rd is $200 its in his best interest to avoid coinflip situations. He will probably fold and wait for a chance to push hoping to pick up the blinds himself. |

I’m not sure why everyone thinks this is a clear all in bet. If you lose here you are fighting for 2nd and 3rd spots. I like sitting back and watching the smaller stacks battle it out here. Your image (maniac) and your position UTG would make this a clear min raise or fold for me. The only way I am all in with this hand is on the button or in the small blind and even there it is depending on the likelihood of bb or sb calling. There are many players in the 109's that will take a shot at you with an A-10 type hand or any pocket pair because of your image.
