Hi all,

Edsodano calls [610].

Blinds were soon to increase and I was running out of FE. I thought that this seemed like a good opportunity for a resteal.

Standard push? Or wait for another opportunity?

I ont think I would reraise here.. This guy is going to call everything but a total junk hand... I think he has a fair share of hands that are 50-50's .
I dont know if its just me but I wait it out.

I'm not sure a resteal would be a good idea here. He's getting 2:1 odds and he's the chip leader so a call seems pretty likely.

Chip leader min-raises from the SB and you guys really don't think A7 is any good?
I like the push. Yes, you might get knocked out, but you need a double-up and there's no reason to expect chip leader has a major hand here.

The problem is, you have very little FE, so you are essentially calling an allin with A7. This isn't really the type of play you want to be making near the bubble. It just isn't that strong of a hand.

You still have 6xBB, and you still have fold equity with a push against the blinds. You aren't exactly in desperation mode yet.

Definite fold for me.

I think you're in for too much and have too strong of a hand to fold here. You are solidly favored against the chip leaders range and winning gives you t1820 v only 760 if you fold, which is huge imo.
