OK, I'll just take it as a good attempt that ended poorly.

No, you just have a partial understanding of the theory. Yes, the planets do have to be aligned for this play to work, but it isn't as rare as you might think. LAG raises, TAG calls, you (a tight player) push. And no, cards shouldn't matter. Harington showed 26o as his example of this play.

You have to think LP is capable of understanding that he has to worry about button as well. Biggest problem with the squeeze in low buy in is that the original raisers doesn't worry at all about the caller behind him. He just plays his cards.

I don't see why you responded, you want to split hairs on something that has several different opinions on it? I made a move against two weak hands and got an unexpected result. I made the post and it seems to be an inexact science and I made a "good" attempt .

That play was noteworthy because it was unusual. Harrington picked exactly the right situation and the situation was more important than the cards. Unless you are that good, stick to trying this with QJ or something.
