Re: Better SB Push...K2 or A2?????
I don't need any damn calculator. The answer is A2, and there's no question about it. Seriously.

Re: Better SB Push...K2 or A2?????
Uh, why are people asking why K2 isn't better? C'mon.
Here's the thing, you're comparing hands with a shared kicker. I recall a similar thread where everyone was idiotically picking JT over KJ. No. Just no. Depending on how many players are left to act, there is a good possibility that K3, for example, would be better than A2. But not when there's a shared kicker. The reason's why SHOULD BE COMPLETELY OBVIOUS TO ALL OF YOU. |

Re: Better SB Push...K2 or A2?????
I had to laugh as well, seriously there's hardly ever a situation except on the bubble where it's not mathematically correct to shove A2o from the SB. This cannot be said for K2o.
And when you're called you can always turn quads to break KK like me. |

I just wanted to ask everybodies opinion on what they think is a better push hand through out the limits... Obviously A2 is a better hand than K2. But if you get called it will most likely be by a person holding an Ace or a Pair. And you have a better chance of beating A10 with K2, than A2. But then again if you have an Ace there is less of a chance the BB has one too. The limits matter too I think. In lower limits you are more prone to being called by bad hands. So K2 might not be better than A2 because a bad player can call you with KJ or KQ. The whole thing about the steal push is that the BB can only call you with a great hand. So it would seem like K2 is the better hand to push. I don't know this question is kinda like asking what's better...One less ace in the deck VS better chance of sucking out. It's weird... [/ QUOTE ] A2 is much better in this spot almost always. |

Re: Better SB Push...K2 or A2?????
how about Q2? I've always liked that one, maybe it's even better?? Karak seems to like J2, I have no problem with this either [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
