Bump. How many other people are as tight as me on the button 3 handed with all even stacks?

Ya know, until last night I thought that ITM with 8-10xBB you should be pushing any A, any K from the button. I SNGEGT'd (or whatever that's called) some last night though and was shocked to discover that most of these are about 0.1% positive. Even from the SB it seemed like you should be a lot tighter than I thought. Maybe my calling ranges are too loose.

Standard. When you have around 10bb on the button 3-handed its either push/fold. I'm pretty tight in this spot, probably A9+, 66+, KQs. All dependent on reads of their calling ranges.

Why so tight here???? I am pushing an A, any pair, any K probably and more.

But I also don't have a 30% ROI.

???


(serious question)

I am stunned at how tight you are here. Thhat can't be right can it??

Check out SNGPT. Pushing any ace any King is suicide. For example pushing A2s only becomes a good push when they call 66+,ATs+,AJo+ (which they hardly ever do). Put these stacks into SNGPT and play around with hands/calling ranges. I think you'll be suprised how tight you have to be in this spot.

I will check it out.

What are you pushing HU with around 10X the BB, against a typical $22 player?
