You're not on the bubble.. it's 6 handed.. and I push this every time

[niquewon]

In my opinion this is a clear push.

I'd have to fold here because the 11 players will call you down with coin flips in a heart beat, and you might get multipule callers at that. (Then again im probably weak tight also) [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]. This is an easy push if you were on the CO, button or in blinds...

I would have to wait and hope I catch something within the next 3 hands..

The point is you have 5.5bb and are about to take a big hit from the blinds. I think that pushing 44 here is probably marginally -EV but going through the blinds is bound to be more so. I don't care if they do call with a coinflip, to be honest, you're going to need some luck to win the SNG from here, whatever you do.

I Push here, and while my instincts aren't great about this situation, I think it's pretty clear.

[Freudian]

With a stack of 5.5bb and you are about to eat the blinds you have to push any pair.

[FlyWf]

You don't mind a 55/45 here, you have 5 BB.

I agree with this, but at the 11's people will call with their a8 suited from the co, and the bb likes to call with alot less of a hand because of his "increased odds." Looking at the stacks again this is probably less likely because its 1/3 of most players stack. Im just trying not to go along with the push blindly crowd, although in this situation its an easier push than i first assumed.
