$11 PP bubble push

Sgt Fishwife · #1 06-22-2006, 06:55 AM

How is this play? Good? Terrible? I'm relatively new to the SNG game so I don't know whether it's better to wait for CO to bust or to play it more aggressively. Thanks.

PartyPoker Regular Tournament, Big Blind is t400 (4 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

CO (t1239)
Button (t7381)
Hero (t3070)
BB (t8310)

Preflop: Hero is in SB with 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
CO folds, Button folds, Hero raises to t2870

That should be, "raises to 3070 (all in)". I don't know what's up with that.

I would push here mainly because there's no guarantee that CO won't double up. Also I've noticed some players will fold until they are literally all-in on the blind so you can't be sure he'll go all-in on the next hand.
Depending on the type of player BB is he may not call here. He's in a good position chip wise & if he doubles you up now with a rubbish hand he's made you alot stronger & himself alot weaker.

***Disclaimer***
I'm just as new as you I would think so my advice is probably not worth that much yet.

Easy push man, very standard, keep it up.

Yes, good push. The shortass makes this VERY unpleasant when KT calls and busts you, but you have to grit your teeth and do it.

Definately push. Shortie isn't short enough.

Only way I'm folding is if shorty is under 400 chips.
