$6.5: HU, felt horrible, but maybe still correct?

After looking at it, this is a really and suicidal push, but when I think about it, my stack sucks so much and it's HU, I'm gonna have no chance in another hand or two, so is this the best I can do? I almost have no FE, as you can see. I think that's what I was thinking when I made this push.

You're posting some good hands. This one is absolutely right on the border. So, I think it's all about your read. If the opponent is average, or slightly tighter, I might fold. As long as you remember that most players tend to loosen up more heads-up than in blind battles (as they should, with position). Of course, position with your stack is moot, but I doubt the button knows this.

If he's been even slightly more active than normal, it's off to the races.

I don't like it just beacuse K2o is beating you here. I hate pushig QJo after a raise...I'md push this just not after a raise

looking at our horrendous chip position, im willing to take the slight worst of it to try and double and have a shot at winning. as bigwig said, if this guy has been in the least bit aggro im sticking it in here.

i tried to edit to agree with bigwig but interenet wasn't working...Aggree with bigwig&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;stallow3nd....i didn't read whole post...if villian is LAG HU i'm pushing if villian is tight east fold

I think there are two (and only two) options here:

1) Shoving pre-flop.
2) Stop and go.

I honestly don't know how anyone can advocate a fold here.

I'd stop and go this. At the $6's you'll see people fold A-high to a stop and go.

No way I'm trying a stop-n-go here. Shove PF. Villian could easily be raising with a MUCH wider range than this. You're stack is too short, and you've got SOMETHING. Push. You'll get called. Maybe you'll get lucky and villian will have something like middle connectors. You very likely have live card(s) here.

I agree, but I added the alternative for those who like FPS [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
