3 isn't goood imo because at best you are a 59% favorite and only 53% against any random hand. Even if he has something like j8o you are still only 57% and you are dead against any other ace or any pair. Risk reward just isn't worth it for me...even with the high blinds.

I should have added...it depends on reads [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] If you are pushing with almost any two then I know I am 57-59% and I call.

And I absolutely hate calling all-in with A2. It is just such a weak heads up hand.

First of all, who the hell are you??? Lol.

Your worst MF'in nightmare.

Firstly, you are awesome.

Second, I'd like to say that folding and pushing hand 5 are extremely close against most opponents. So, it's certainly not a big mistake to push.

To the OP, you played these hands well and should look for leaks elsewhere.

I don't like the call with A2 - i think it might be the result of trying to end the tourney.

I like eveyrthing else.

He is getting 1.5:1 on the call. He only needs 40% equity to make the call... I think he has way more than that holding A2o.

I didn't notice the blinds. It's at least close.

I still think I fold here, but I think I definitely fold at 200/400 or less.

It isn't as though the pusher is pushing any two. Should be something like this:

Hand 1: 53.3776 % 48.95% 04.43% { 22+, A2s+, K2s+, Q7s+, J8s+, T9s, 98s, A2o+, K5o+, Q8o+, J8o+, T9o }
Hand 2: 46.6224 % 42.19% 04.43% { A2o }

It may be a call considering the blinds, but it's close.

It's not really close. Pretty clear call, I think.
