Dealt to Hero Q♠ K♣

fold, Hero raises to $2,590 (AI), fold, fold

SB is solid, i trust him to stay in line here ~9% call. I peg BB to a bad/average random's range here, something like 15%-25%

Pretty close decision depending on how wide the BB calls.

How would you play this? It was a pretty easy push for me in game, not so sure now. Probably still better to push given the size of the blinds.

This is standard, don't see why you would not push this? (first post, 2nd post is mistake double post obviously :P)

And i don't think its close to btm of you pushing range. 30-40% depending on the table.


I thought this was a good push by a pretty good margin, but in wiz, its just slightly +EV.


20% is way too much, you really think he calls A2-A7 for most of his stack on the bubble?


I've been pushing quite a bit in this game, came back from like 800 chips. I can't say for sure that he won't call with almost all his aces. But i can definitely see him call with A7/A6 at least, KQ, KJ, QJ.


In game this would be ista push for me :f_confused:

I still think this should be a push. It may be marginal, but we are still the short stack. We can't pass that many spots.

Pretty standard shove unless BB calls ridiculously loose. Note that even when he calls you wider than you'd like to, you should still go for every marginal spot you can get given the stack setup.
