1 hand per thread next time

on the 1st hand I believe I would shove.. you got a bucket full of FE and A7s is a decent hand... And for my own experience they could be calling with ranges that A7s has crushed... So I would go for it...

2nd hand I'm not sure... I think I would have to base them by reads... In my experience like stated before players call pretty loose on these micro and the low stakes mtt's... So I think it's a fold if both of your opponents call with around 25% and wider... (This is a guess btw I've not put it into any software or done any calculations )... but I feel like J9s ain't good enough to shove into loose opponents... but if they are tight ship it...


The 2nd hand im folding and looking for another hand to push. U have 11BB. Is pretty close although, i think its J8s+ Posibbly, but i rather look for another spot.

You pretty much need to calculate mtt hands using the M = x rather then bb's left... Just the antes change so much and stuff :)

Just to spark further discussion before my judgement:

What calling ranges do you think sb and bb have? rough % works.

Hi all,

First let me preface my judgement by saying that generally our opponents at this limit do not understand ranges, the stack of, and the position of the pusher. They just look at their cards (and in very rare cases their position) to see what they should do.

So we can safely use pushbot charts for judging our actions. These charts assume a calling range for opponents behind us if we push and give us of a range of hands we can safely push with:

I can't link to these charts directly because of pokerstrategy rules, but we can begin profitably pushing J9s on the button with an M of 6.9 (and obviously lower) if our opponents are calling:

"Loose": 22+ A2s+ A2o+ KTs+ KJo+ QJs QJo JTs.

This is utter BS, because our opponents never/rarely call this wide AND we also have a lower M than the chart says. So this hand is an easy push, and we make a ton of profit by pushing it.

Assuming the worst case scenario again for hand 1, which is a "tight" calling range of our opponents, of

"Tight": 66+ A6s+ A8o+ KQs

we can start pushing A7s with an M of 8.1. So this hand is also an easy push. Generally speaking at the low limit MTT's, we should be pushing a wide range of hands. It's +variance but in turn it's also +++++++++$EV. Don't be nits.

(and yes, use M when referring to MTT because of the significant role of antes).


I would play both
first hand with 13BB you could raise 2.5BB and still be able to fold to a push but if you think he would play back at you push it

second one is easy push , the hand plays well & chances are that you will take down blinds

on any MTT you need to build up stack & picking spots to play & dont play to many hands & you get the respect to take these down
