hmm, i'll give it a try.

Since they have added the new 75/150 it seems that i can afford to be a bit more patient.

Hand 1) i fold. Yes you only have 7 bb's and the blinds are hitting you next hand. At best you are a coinflip. Chip leaders are in the blinds.

hand 2) i fold. i think its a bit early with 1200 chips to take this gamble, especially if i feel i am one of the btr players at the table.

hand 3) I call and expect to be winning, button is short stack and should raise with any 2.

Hmm. I think I would fold all of them in a 10+1 without reads. The last one is a call if you know that the opponent pushes a lot of hands, like maybe all aces and K7 and stuff like that. But I understand that at the 10+1's there are a lot of players who have ridiculously tight pushing ranges.

I think people, including myself, see 22 or 33 and think 'pocket pair...decent hand' and forget that these hands are toss-ups at best. Your 33 cannot possibly be a solid favorite unless your opponent calls with 22 or 23. Otherwise, he either has you tied or crushed.

The A7 call is good to know, I still have to overcome my fear of calling with non-monsters.

I think that hand 1 is the only obvious one, and it is a fold.

hand 2 is probably profitable, but only marginally. I'de push, but I can see a good player not wanting to push such a small edge.

In hand 3 I doubt there are many people that would be tight enough on the button to make this a bad call.

Hand 1: I push, and I think it's wrong.

Hand 2: You've only got 8x BB, 66, 4 players act against you. Marginal, but shoving.

Hand 3: Depends on how much Villain will push from the Button. If you're against me from the button, A7 should be a very easy call, but most people aren't going to be like that.
