Default Just had to post this :-)

I don't have the HH but 4 players left in a $11 UB SNG, on the bubble.

Blinds 150/300.

UTG has 130 chips and folds.

I am on Button with AJs. I have 6500 chips. I raise to 1000.

SB with 1800 goes all-in.

BB with 1900 folds.

I call 800 more. SB turns over ATo.

I win the hand, SB is out. UTG goes out next hand. I win HU. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I actually didn't think I had to explain why I thought the SB was an idiot.

why? because he pushed ATo with 6 BB on possible bulling attempt by the chip leader? sure he had nearly no folding equity, but it's not THAT bad as ATo does dominate lower aces and coinflip vs many

Well I thought it was a hoot that he would push ATo with no folding equity when UTG had 130 chips left and we were on the bubble. I thought some might get a chuckle.

My bad.

It's only a bad push if you want to finish 3rd. If you want to win, nothing wrong with it. Suppose you fold? Then UTG gets aces and triples up ... and then gets another lucky hand and doubles up. Meanwhile, you get nothing and end up 4th anyway.
You play to win the game.
