Default My big stack is covered by other in position

Party 22$ SNG bubble situation makes ring game player wonder what to do?

Blinds (400/800)
BB 3,000
SB 7,000
Hero 7,000
CO 3,000

Dealt to hero KQo, CO folds.

If my SNGPT call ranges make any sense, pushing this is $EV+. I also do have less that 10BB, so that tells me to push. Does anyone raise BB all-in here instead of pushing the whole stack?

What if the hand is something like QJo? What is your pushing range here?

KQ and QJ are both very easy pushes. Anything else would be bad. My push range is huge here and yours should be too.

Thanks for the advice. I just felt very uncomfortable pushing(I did that!) there.

Don't worry, the other big stack should feel even more uncomfortable calling without a premium hand [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].

In the next hand, you should probably be pushing >50% of your hands, and completely own this bubble.
