Default Oh god I think I just came! (Maybe LC?)

There is no greater rush than overpushing with crap. This is part brag/part checking to make sure that this isn't terribly -EV. We all do this, correct? Raiser has been relatively solid.

Hero (button): $5621
UTG: $2272
SB: $1585
BB: $522

Blinds 75/150. UTG raises to 600. I push with crap[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] crap[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Yes? Will they both fold to make this work? I know if BB calls, UTG is probably calling as well. I can't figure out if BB folds this enough though.

Oh, and I just finished a set of 4 with 3 1sts and a 3rd. That ever elusive Grand Slam is still out of my reach! 3 times in the past two months I've had a legit shot and come up short. Damn.

Yes, it's fine. And the other great thing about this play is that it potentially sets you up for the single most fun moment in SNGs:

When EP calls you with his AJs, you suck out, and he sticks around til the end of the tourney to "root against you" in the chat box.

Yeah, but you just know he's still there lurking, even more frustrated that he can't bark at you.
