Was wondering if the push was a bit risky. I didn't think BU was an SSS player but couldn't be sure really. But if it had been an SSS player his handrange for a late raise is big enough for a push right?

Known players:

0.05/0.1 No-Limit Hold'em (8 handed)
Hand recorder used for this poker hand: PokerStrategy Elephant 0.65 by www.pokerstrategy.com.

Preflop: Hero is SB with K♠, A♥
3 folds, MP3 calls $0.10, CO folds, BU raises to $0.50, Hero raises to $1.75 (All-In), 2 folds, BU calls $1.25.

Flop: ($3.70) 6♠, Q♥, 8♥
Turn: ($3.70) Q♠
River: ($3.70) 3♠ (2 players)

Final Pot: $3.70

Results follow (highlight to see):
Hero shows a pair of queens (Ks Ah)
BU shows two pairs, queens and sevens (7c 7s)

BU wins with two pairs, queens and sevens (7c 7s)

nh. You don't have stats so pushing is the right move. If BU was a SSS player you would still raise as KA is EV+ versus the short stack late range.

Yup, AK is a push against a singe raise. Pushing AK from the blinds vs lateposition raise is never a mistake.

Hi mikelstwe,

Sample size is 22 and therefore defined as unknown, and with AceKing go all-in when you see one raise in front of you.

Well played :)
