Why? Enlighten me.

button raise from the second stack is often a reasonably large range. our hand measures up well against it, but i think does even better as a stop and go (obv we would check if we hit anything). flop is nice for the shove because he folds a lot of his non-ace range and it only has to work less than half of the time.

btw, i almost always hate stop n gos.

Gotcha. I understand the line of thinking but I guess I differ on what we get to fold. It's very dependent on the Villain. I love it based on the range your speaking of but I think there a lot of 114ers that I would never try this against.

thing is that people who are calling with 77 are also opening wide enough for this to be profitable. people opening tighter are folding 77.

obv, this is a generalization, but do you get what im saying?

Absolutely. I got it from the beginning. I think you 77 example may me a bit off. I think plenty could open with like 77+,Ax+,KJ+ here. All that we are beating is KJ & sometimes folding 77-TT depending on the player.
This obviously does work a lot better at the 114s. 77-TT may never fold to our line at a lower level.

How do you think of the possibility that the button has an A when there is already an A appearing on flop? I think if the possibility is below 40% it is a good move.

cool... pushing PF isn't that bad either right?

[/ QUOTE ]

Pushing PF is worse here as villian probably has Ax or a mid pair and is pot committed unless x<8, in which case he should be pushing. The stop and go gets villian off mid pair on A high flop.

Me too. I understand the reasoning, I just don't think it's the correct spot.
