Hi,

I pushed, cos at next hand blinds will eat me down leaving me with no FE at all, but considering after me is sitting one more shorty, could I push here or should fold?

I think this is a standard push for me, KJo is a good enough in this spot. In my opinion you could even be looser, because the blinds are so big and the last 3 players are pretty close the one another so they're going to have tighter ranges than normal. Also this is a bubble spot so most random villain ranges will again tighten up.

I think ICM is on your side on this one.


this is definitely not an easy spot.

your range here should be TIGHT, because of the BTN being so short and the BB being so big. the BB is getting good odds to call you.

this spot will depend on reads, against a loose BB i like a fold here because you will get looked up way too much, but by folding the BTN will shove very wide and get looked up with almost ATC from the BB.

on a tight table a push is marginal, but its ok.

my default here is a fold. we just dont have the FE we need against the BB.
