HU- What stack to blind ratio, do you beging a push/fold strategy?

[the shadow]

It's not the ratio of the BB to your stack, it's the ratio to the short stack. I generally start push/fold by 10xBB.

Good point. I'm more likely to push/fold when my opponent's short than when I'm short because I think I have more FE then. Against perfect opponents, you should play exactly the same with an xBB stack as you would against an opponent with an xBB stack.

Is this true? If there are four left with stacks of 3000, 3000, 3000, and 1000, you wouldn't play the same with one of the 3000 chip stacks as you would with the 1000 chip stack, would you?

No, we were talking about when there are only two players left.
