I really like it,77 rates to be the best hand and u should have some fold equity as well.

looks good

Good hand disk. FE+hand strength make this a nice shove.

ug. this is tougher than it looks I think. I don't think a push is awful but you're only getting called when you're flipping or against a higher pair. The pot only represents slightly less than slightly less than 20% of your stack. I almost like calling here and playing some post flop.

good hand to post.

i play a lot of those 5,5s and will do the same play all day long- itm things get wild there and 77 will be in good shape most of the time

Re: (5.50) mid pp itm.
 

Read dependent - especially at this buy-in. If he's raising in position a lot, I like a push - especially if he's decent post-flop. If he's being more selective and/or limping his button a lot, I prefer a call - especially if he's weak post-flop. Also somewhat dependent on my table image (ie my FE against him pre-flop and post-flop).

This deep I'd often call and lead any flop, then re-evaluate if necessary.

the stack sizes make this awkward because were both deep. were flipping at best, we have FE but generally not vs an A at this buy in usually, even KQ will look you up here
agreed kibby, good hand to post , tricky imo
