Default Too weak to steal here?

I haven't played a hand in about 5 rounds, and have blinded off half of my stack...the blinds are at 120/240 in a FTP $24 + 2, and i have about 2400 left

Sorry the hand converter didnt work...again...

I have an A-6 offsuit and it's folded to me in the cutoff...three people still in the hand other th n me...too weak to steal, or am i ok firing off 5/600 here?

Thanks guys

Pushbot table says A6o is a fold, A7o is a push. So it's a borderline push if you want to play slightly looser than the table would suggest (if I'm not mistaken, the table assumes that your opponents can see your cards when determining what is profitable to push, so you can play a bit looser profitably if your opponents cannot see your cards).

If you havent played a hand in several orbits I think this is perfectly acceptable to move in.

I would not steal/raise. Do we call a shove? Would we fold?

I think A7o folds to a push, but pushes on you if you raise. thats a problem.

My push charts also say the same, A7o we can open push and turn face up, A6o is slightly negative if we turn it face up, but, we are not.. and we have image... I push.

Yeah with a decent image shoving A6o in the CO @ 10BB seems right...is there a link to "the pushbot tables"?

I'm way too old to know how to post a link, but it took me ~5 minutes to google it yesterday. Third or fourth link on "pushbot table", I think.

Personally i think your M is just a little too big for pushing there, in most situations I fold unless I have a read or HUD stats that indicate that these players are tighter than normal.

I shove. Especially if I haven't played in 5 orbits, that has to give a boost to the FE.
