55 OTB, Awkward Stack, ITM of a FTP 69+6 DS6
Sorry about the HH, I am new to the forum and have not yet found a converter for FTP HH's.
Full Tilt Poker Game #1314157782: $5,000 Guarantee (8897261), Table 21 - 500/1000 Ante 125 - No Limit Hold'em - 15:47:53 ET - 2006/11/27 Seat 1: nsinger (16,554)(SB) Seat 2: ninpo (34,294)(BB) Seat 3: Robbiegol (6,797) Seat 4: PurpleH (13,568) Seat 5: s4mmyfarha (49,228) Seat 6: willw9 (18,718)(Button) **All players post T125 ante** *** HOLE CARDS *** Dealt to willw9 [5h 5s] Robbiegol folds PurpleH folds s4mmyfarha folds willw9... I was the CL for most of the tourney. I was hit over the head with the deck early, but my cards turned cold late. I had been playing pretty aggressive up until this point, trying to play a lot of small pots, and folding (incorrectly, in hindsight) to a lot of SS all-ins. The SB was your average, decent 6 max player. He played fairly solid, was capable of making plays, was selectively aggressive, etc. I would say that his repop range is definetely higher than his "all in call" range. The BB was fairly new to the table, no reads yet. How do you proceed?

"and folding (incorrectly, in hindsight) to a lot of SS all-ins. "
because of this, I'd make my normal PF raise and call a push. I'll take a pair all day in a race, and hopefully he'll be pushing a lot of junk as well. I can see an argument for just pushing allin preflop also.

if you're going to raise and call a push than i'd say just shove now. that way you eliminate a tough decision if someone stop n gos you.
also, here's your full tilt HH converter: http://www.neildewhurst.com/hand-converter/

Re: 55 OTB, Awkward Stack, ITM of a FTP 69+6 DS6
Yeah, pushing is easiest. Raise-call is fine but often gruesome when he calls. I tried a limp-push, and posted the hand, in this spot a few weeks ago. I was quite pleased with it. One poster said it was turning my hand face up (and I thought it was pretty innovative too [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]) but I'm not sure I agree there. However, 55 is a little low for this play and you need to be pretty sure that villain will a)raise b)not raise too much.
As the alternatives are all problematic, in a vacuum I think pushing is the play.
