Re: $22 SnG - short stacked w/ pocket 4s???
BB = 150
Stack = 705 = PUSH. Not enough better opportunity waiting time left to fold. |

Re: $22 SnG - short stacked w/ pocket 4s???
You guys are killin me here. How can you sit around and wait for some great oppurtunity with just over 4x the BB left. Yes it isnt a dream scenario, but you aren't likely to have one at this point. Anything but moving allin is simply terrible IMO. If the blinds are 50-100 then feel free to fold all you want. |

Dammit, my first instinct was to push but then I retracted my post. Partial credit? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Re: $22 SnG - short stacked w/ pocket 4s???
I clearly state push in my post and then perhaps not so clearly say that there isnt enough time left to wait for a better opportunity.
So there. |

Ok.
I actualy find it quite encouraging that so many say fold even though fold = quite horrid. I think maybe some have missed that the BB is 150. |

Even we only have 4.8BB, do you think it is a good idea to willingly take at best a coin flip here? especially HERO is button, and can wait for a few more hands, either for a better hand or open push opportunity. I do realize that sometimes I wait for too long. its my leak. |

If we knew for sure that it was a coinflip with the UTG player, this is a very good situation for us. Very good....passing it up would be suicidal.

Re: $22 SnG - short stacked w/ pocket 4s???
definitely! First off there is dead money in the blinds (225 chips!!), second of all you will win the hadn almost 55% of the time. You arent going to see a better oppurtunity than this with only 4.7x the BB. Coinflips are usually bad when you have a comfortable chip stack, when you are desperate and its not the bubble they are usually pretty good, as its unlikely you will have a better oppurtunity. Its especially good to be on the "right" side of the coinflip.
