Re: Do you push here?
Why would you? That is a less than average hand. The median is Q8, I believe (and I wouldn't push with that here either. Wait until the next time you get Ax, suited connectors, or broadway cards at the very least given the situation you have described.

Re: Do you push here?
I read somewhere that all in in the SB with < 8 BB was profitable with any two random cards. Was I using this wrong?

Re: Do you push here?
I think you mean < 8 BB. And I'm unsure of the truth of the argument.
I wouldn't push here. |

Re: Do you push here?
This fully depends on the BB. If he's an idiot, no. If he's seemed reasonable, push 32o.

Is this an easy push? [/ QUOTE ] Easy push, IMO, even for a fairly loose BB. The reason is that you increase your equity a great deal (ICM estimates >1/3) when you pick up the blinds here. For a reasonably tight BB, 32o is an easy push: So, I think Phil hit the mark here, as usual. You can quibble about the equity values here, but I think it gives the correct ordering, which is all you need to make these decisions. eastbay PS The screenshots are a program I'm developing that is not released yet, to respond to the usual follow-up. |
