My problem with calling is 'what if BB catches and looses while Hero misses completely.' Wouldn't BB get 3'rd here?

if you bust out on the same hand, whoever had the most chips before the hand started gets third. holla

calling pf then calling a bet on the flop with Q high is better than pushing to begin with.

as raptor pointed out, no... BB has to beat you, and everyone else in the hand to get 3rd. Thats the point, other wise its a completely different situation.

1. Hero pushing of < 2 BB isn't going to fold many big stack hands that are ahead of him.

2. If hero pushes and gets called it is the same thing as hero limping and calling all-in.

3. Hero's hand is above average so I really don't want to fold and have bb's random hand go up against just sb's random hand where he is more likely to double up.

4. If hero limps and sb or button calls or goes all-in (forcing hero all-in) bb has to beat 2 or 3 hands to survive.

5. If hero folds or loose to only bb he is pot committed to the next hand where he is the big blind (unless some one else is all-in.)

I guess what I am really getting at is that I think hero's best chance to get ITM eliminate the bb now. I want to get as many people to gang up on bb as possible to reduce the odds that he survives.

Limp call all-in the line I would take.

I would fold so BB (t160) could go broke. Seriously, where are the nude pics [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Well, since calling is almost always better than pushing, you can't push. (really don't want SB to fold here, cuz you want BB out, and you're doing everything to make sure BB dies).

I call here, instead of fold, because having everyone fold to BB or something bites, and you have a semi-decent hand that will help knock BB out.

Call.
