$55: A Stop n Go that has been bothering me

[tigerite]

By the way the reason the ranges are looser than you might expect, is that when he calls, you have to win 58.4% of the time.

Just push preflop? Fold maybe? I figured I'd see a flop and push a non-threatening one (I know that's not an official stop n go). Villain's normal raise had been minraises since he got his stack. He wasn't particularly good.

NoahSD is right, calling puts too much of your stack in. The problem with seeing the flop before committing is that you will end up making too many mistakes on the flop. Push.

First column: % of hands they fold from their raising range (always from the bottom, according to K-S chart values)
Second column: Their raising range

It's not 100% accurate, but it's better than nothing.
