That's about right for a bit stack push, and you dont need 11% of dead money, theres 1.5 BB in there, your 3BB raise, villains 3BB call, then 23BB more... so 23 to win 30.5 BB, thats enough to take a 55/45 (not to mention a 51/49), i think.

If that's the range, then I call. I honestly don't know the range for a typical $109 player. I'd guess it would include pockets down to 22, and AQ less often, but that's just a guess. I might count just AQs as a proxy for the notion that the player is less likely to push AQ in general.

My prior post was not so much a statement of his range as a reason why you might fold to a push: i.e. you suspect you're up against a pocket. Obviously this requires a bit more of a read.

I'm calling most of the time here. I only said I'd consider folding to a push.
