Pretty common situation with a marginal hand late in a $55
This situation comes up a lot for me and I am usually split on folding and pushing. The key thing I'm looking at here is the 3 people left to act all have less than 7BB and the BB is a 14/3 so he's tight. With the blinds this big and everyone short stacked, should I take the aggressive play and push, trying to increase my stack by 33%, or fold and wait to make a better push in a few hands. If you would push, what is the worst holding you would push with? If you decided to fold, what's the worst hand you would push with?

I'm not pushing any two, but a fairly wide range
Let's say 22+, A2+, KTo+, K9s+, QJo, QTs+

Re: Pretty common situation with a marginal hand late in a $55
what do you mean by BB is a 14/3?
Also, i'm not opposed to pushing here. This type of play for me is table/image dependant. This is the few times late in a sng where finesse comes into play.

[/ QUOTE ] Whilst this is a blatant push with A4o (they need to call with ridiculous ranges to not make it so, BB in the region of any-ace, any-pair), with 32o (say) it is not quite so clear-cut. I mean, yes, the ranges are still quite wide (in the region of 55+,ATo+,A8s+,KQs for Button and SB, with BB at 44+,A9o+,A7s+,KJs) but it's not unheard of for a donk or two to call with this. So ATC would require a slight read.

Nice work. I doublechecked your numbers knowing I didn't have to, and you are right. I think 32o is a fold usually, hell, as BB I'd call an allin from a 2+2'er with A7s here.
