Dealt to Hero 6♦ 7♦

fold, Hero raises to $3,390 (AI),

BB is tight, SB was kinda loose earlier but haven't seen him get out of line on the bubble yet.

67s should be a pretty clear push, but do you push close to ATC?

Nash:
BU 40.9%, 22+ Ax+ K2s+ K8o+ Q2s+ Q9o+ J7s+ J9o+ T6s+ T9o 96s+ 86s+ 76s
SB 6.6%, 99+ ATs+ AJo+
BB 12.2%, 66+ A7s+ A8o+ KJs+

SB range looks pretty solid, think BB should be tighter than that tho.

With your reads I'm shoving very loose, maybe ATC, depending pretty much exclusively on my table image tbh.
Not only is it +EV, but also allows us to take chip lead, abuse the bubble and gain a commanding lead imo.

Also r.e: nash ranges, I pretty much never see a tight BB calling with A8o for stacks on the bubble...


I think I would fold, Im a nit :(

Its always tough ti figure out your opponents on the bubble because even though some players were pretty loose in the earlier stages they might be unreasonably tight now and the contrary can be true as well, that some players played solid poker, but have no idea what ICM is and therefore are going to make horrible calls now.

I wouldnt push any2 here, but I think shoving 76s is a good idea. The nash range looks pretty good to me.

A little bit OT: How come the expression "ATC" is preferred in the English forums? I am from the German community, where we always you "any2" instead.

ATC (Any Two Cards) is one less character than any2 :P

But you have to press Shift. :f_cool:


67s is a snap shove here, but to whether im shoving ATC is debatable. I dont think im close to ATC here mainly because the BB is the short-stack. Even though he is pretty even often fish will just look at their remaining chips and go "oh... i only have 2300 left after my blind... lets see what everyone else has... ok this guy has 3.5k, this guy has 4k, this guy has 3.5k... i need to call my QJo here because im short"

Even tight players often spaz call wide all of a sudden when they get down to like 3-4BBs as the SS. It's like a switch goes off in their brain. ok I cant fold anymore CALL 80%. Their range isnt fluid, its goes from like 8% call to 80% in 1BB difference.

I think nash looks pretty good when you are up against unknowns here, even if you haven't seen the loose guy get out of line, he could suddenly snap call something weird just because he doesnt like getting abused.
