Default Re: How to play NLH headsu sng when the blinds reach 50/100 (5-10 doll

If he pushes into you:

You need to consider how well your hand plays against his range. 35%? 40%? 60%? Obviously if you are in good shape you call. If you are below 50% you should be considering how much your blind is going to add to his stack. What you need to know is if you will be better off calling in the next couple hands, or right there.

If you are pushing into him you can be a lot looser:

You need to consider his calling range and how well you match up against it. I believe Q7o+ puts you above 50% of his range, but assuming you are called you are generally in much worse shape than that.

For 6-7 BBs I'm shoving any ace, any PP, any 2 10+, any connectors. If I think he will fold a decent range I will widen my range to 1 and 2 gappers, etc.
