88 3 handed...
Already ITM, I am chip leader with around 5,300. The other two players each had around 3k in chips. Button is a L/A player and doubles the BB to 300. SB also a L/A player flat calls. I push all in with 88?
Too aggressive? Blinds not higher enough for this? |

Re: 88 3 handed...
Play post-flop and look for scare cards. I don't think you can fold to 1 more BB given your chip stack and the strength of your hand three-handed. At the same time, I don't feel like pushing and risking the chip lead for 14% of my stack.

Re: 88 3 handed...
My logic was that neither of these guys would want to risk finishing 3rd by calling for their entire stacks, as they both were even in chips.
Flawed? |

Re: 88 3 handed...
I would push this. It's a great hand 3-handed. You can knock players out. And if you get called and lose, you still have a good chance to get second.
Why am I even expliaing this? Push. |

[/ QUOTE ] Well it depends on the player, but most good SNGers are willing to gamble for 1st once they've made the money. I doubt they'd play extra tight just because they wanted to avoid 3rd place. If they have a good hand they are going to see it as giving them a chance to win the whole thing. Edited to add: but I'd still push this, it's likely you're best here. |
