Default Re: $119 FTP Interesting bubble hand

With a player of your caliber in the BB, I push anything I decide to play as the button. My intuition is that the SB is better off pushing anything he decides to play, even with the significant possibility of you trying this move from the BB. If part of the reasoning is that button is just auto calling the SB shove but will fold if you squeeze, then I'd rather just fold. If button is autocalling I doubt he's opening light enough to essentially call all in. I'd push generally though. In your shoes, I'd be really concerned about the SB calling because his flat can either be a huge hand, an invitation for you to squeeze, or he just doesn't know what's he doing and calls/calls with a medium strength hand. It's very educational to consider the math behind making this play, but it's bizarre to me because I'm not opening or flatting 900 and folding to a raise against someone who knows what they're doing. I'm going to consider making this play more often. Apologies for no math.
