bad push?
My thinking was I didnt want to be in the big blind in a situation where I couldnt fold to a raise, so I decided to push here with any 2, which happened to be J8s. Im playing 10+1 and am usually very aggressive, but this seems overly so, any thoughts?

Re: bad push?
With your stack, you don't have many options here. This definitely isn't an "any two" push, but I'll take a marginal push with J8s here, simply because you need the chips. I don't expect Button or BB to fold a tremendous amount of the time though.

Re: bad push?
I think J8s is probably strong enough, but the other short-stack isn't the guy to push with any two. He doesn't have enough to lose. The stacks of 1000 and 1200 are your best targets.

Personally I think it's a clear push. |

Re: bad push?
At this point I'm getting desperate and I'm pushing any suited face cards, any two face cards, PP, and suited connectors down to 54.

Re: bad push?
Pushing with any 2 sucks here. Pushing with J8s, I think, is pretty bad.
Don't get THAT desperate. You need to be desperate, and I'd push any 2 from the SB, a very wide range of hands (including this one) on the button, maybe CO. Edit: Wow, J8s from MP with 5x BB? I need to get more desperate with my pushes... |

Re: bad push?
I'd much rather push from C0+1 here than from the Button.
From the button you are pushing at a big stack who will call with a very wide range. His range will be much tigher from the SB, whether it should be or not. Agree or not? anyone. |
