Re: stars $55+5 3 handed
i don't like it b/c you've got 10+BB's. i might push if the blinds were 300/600. plus people open up their calling ranges once ITM.

[/ QUOTE ] I don't think having 10+BBs here is really the issue...so what? he's got 12? Us turbo players have to think about where these "guidelines" originate from, and also, think about the fact that they are, in essence, just "guidelines". The 10BB thing came up as a standard rule for party SNGs where there are no antes. Having a little over 10BBs where raising and being reraised makes it still +EV to call (even given reraiser's now tighter range) makes it even better to just open push because of the added FE (never mind the added pot equity from antes and future antes you are paying to see cards). I havent run the numbers on this, but I would guess giving BB a "loose-average" calling range should be right. That being said...because the other stack has 3/5th of Hero and BB, I might open to 1000 and just simply outplay BB from position. If he pushes, I might be inclined to give him credit. Sorry, just wanted to chime in on the 10BB thing...here though, I think raising might be better, but it has more to do with the stack sizes than being "over 10bbs". p |

You're right, only setting each player to maniac gives -EV.

Re: stars $55+5 3 handed
but it's soooo close. I fold preflop. At 10 bb's I think a push is mandatory.

I think I'd let this go too, but it's close.

Re: stars $55+5 3 handed
I can't push this. i might raise to 1,000-1,200 or I may just let it go depending on how I feel about my opponents

Re: stars $55+5 3 handed
I push this often enough, and have wondered if it might be a mistake. I just feel a standard raise is begging BB to come over the top as he actually has a decent amout of FE. So I either fold or push, most of the time push. But it's these hands that usually gets me into trouble.

[/ QUOTE ] you'll only get called if you're in serious trouble, drawing to 3 outs at most. winning an extra 675 chips is not really worth it here. i would treat this just like any other blind steal attempt. it doesn't even matter what your cards are. just raise to T1,200 and make him make the decision of coming over the top or calling. losing 1,200 won't hurt your stack as much as losing almost all of it. i would rather push here with a hand like JT or 89s than A2o because u have at most 3 outs when called |
