Re: (20+2) Push or wait for the shortstack?
[ QUOTE ]
in that case id push as they'd fold all but the best hands realizing that you pushed with someone about to bust out. [/ QUOTE ] Play for first, settle for third...not fourth. I'm waiting the two hands it takes for UTG to bust out.

Re: (20+2) Push or wait for the shortstack?
Important Question - is there a program where I can enter calling standards for someone, and it will tell me the % of time they will call. Note that I can do this easily, I just can't do it as easily when I know my hand contains an ace. Is there anything that does this automatically for me, given that an ace is out? Thanks!

Not quite a guarantee. I'd say its about 55% that he goes out next hand, since its basically his random 2 + BB's random 2, plus the small chance that Hero or SB wakes up with something good enough to team up on him.

[/ QUOTE ] I'm still not pushing with A7os with a good chance I'm in the money next hand... And is anyone with worse than A7os going to call? No. If you're called, you're screwed. What does 3rd pay here? $44? $44 vs $-22. That's a $66 move. You gonna go all-in for $66 with A7os? I'm not. Push a pocket pair, maybe.

Its a $40 move. But unfortunately it isn't that simple, since I am not guaranteed to lose if I get called, and not guaranteed 3rd if I fold. I agree its a close call and I'm still not sure about it.

I have a program that makes any aces I'm dealt when on the bubble with a shortstack, automatically show up as a duece on my computer screen. [/ QUOTE ] So 22 is an automatic push then right [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
