imo it´s none of both
you can definately think about it but it´s not really necessary to play this hand and i would like to know my opponent before i shove in 12-13bb with a marginal hand.
the push is +EV though. i think you can even turn over your hand and push (sklansky-chubukov) but that´s close i guess ^^


mmm i prefer a raise to 2,5bb. I think its not good enough to push here. At least K9


@frzi well he didn't inclue any reads so i assume randomguy245 agains which i shove. Also it may be 13 bb (7m) but you are at short table so your eM is only around 3,5.

I lean towards a push here... it's pretty marginal but I'm ready to say hello to mr. fold equity here.

Call me mr. tightwad, but I fold against unknown :)

couple of reasons:
- I get called way to often here by junk hands (that still have me beat :p)
- I'll be pushing into this guy a thousand times before the sng ends, and "spite calls" are not a rarity on this limit. So I'm saving my folding equity for a higher blindlevel
- bad risk/reward imo.. reason 1 realy :P

I agree with this. But at the lower limits I think a fold is more optimal because we can find way better spots and lower our variance.
