I'd be pushing just about any 2 here. [/ QUOTE ] I'd be pushing any 2 here. The only exception might be if I had done it 10 times in a row and had 72o. Check that, I'd still push. |

Re: ($22): Attempting to own the bubble, worth it at 22s?
fair enough.
From trying this though there have been many times when maniacs have called (as I said above) with nothing Kx or Ax and had a slightly better kicker than me, or I didnt improve my suited connectors e.t.c leaving me with a lot less chips going into three-way or HU. I play very low though, and with scandinavians [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] so that may make a difference. |

Button won't call because two potential knockouts in blinds. [/ QUOTE ] If I am button here I am calling with a huge range. I have zero FE anyway so will need to win a showdown. Why not use bigstacks FE and try to triple up. Still a very easy push for hero though. |

Uh, why would you possibly fold this? You can get called, lose, and still have a healthy stack. Getting called with Ax here is not something to tremendously afraid of, certainly not enough to pass up the extreme likelyhood of seeing 3 folds and adding 600 chips.

even in a $22 you must push this, your hand is too strong and its the bubble.

[/ QUOTE ] I think he is saying it becomes more +EV at the higher levels because you are less likely to have some dipwad in the BB calling with A7o. |

Re: ($22): Attempting to own the bubble, worth it at 22s?
By the way him calling with A7o didn't even hurt your equity. The beauty about K2s here is their ranges can be absolutely huge and you still profit.
It's not quite "unexploitable" but I can't see the BB calling more than 22+,A2+,K7o+,K2s+,QTo,Q9s+,JTs.. can you? |
