16s -> 27s: Looking for advise

[ycjason]

I mean push with 5s from mid position, maybe AJ+ as well, and sometimes reraise with 75o if I believe the original raiser is possible on a steal and with the right amount of chips (this reraise doesn't apply to 12bb or not, usually I am doing this with a big stack against another mid-big stack). Also, I wouldn't be afraid to call with KJ for 2/3 of chips on the bubble against someone I know is pushing wide.

I don't just go crazy though, I just fold Qs last game with 12bb and 7-handed, I was on sb and utg (very loose player) raise 3x and utg+1 reraise 3x, I folded because I have seen utg+1 play ~150 hands, not a single raise. Turns out utg+1 had AQo (still puzzled by that), but I feel like I made the right lay down there since under normal situation, someone with that kind of stat is going to show me As, Ks and AK at least 50%.

Oh, just an update for today's play at 27s, I ran very cold in the first 10 games, 3 of my busts are As, Ks, and Ks, all preflop allin, one of the Ks ran into As, but others are both against 2 under cards, one hit flush, one hit 2 pair. But after that, my luck changed dramatically, I ran insanely hot for the next 20 games, must be in the money like 14/20. Overall,

43 games
ROI: 41.5% (I know, just got lucky)
ITM: 46.5%
profit: $482

Oh, just one other note, why does stars charge more rake on the 27s than the 16s, in fact, the rake become even higher at 35s (3/35), shouldn't the rake be on the decrease as the stake gets higher?

Wondering...if you are down to 10-12 BB, and some loose idiot with a decent stack min raises in mid position, do you push your small pairs, knowing that this guy is not capable of laying down his K-T? Just to gamble and try to double up at even money? I was doing this a while back and was getting pounded, was wondering if it was a leak or if I was just running bad.

go for the 27s

hehe.. thanks for that adviCe. now I know why I never get As in English class, fortunately I am a computer science major, not a lot of english required, mostly C++ and Java [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

No, I don't do that, 12xbb I start to be aggressive, but still avoid coin flips like that, if I got 9s or 10s maybe I'll push if I think the other guys is likely to have Ace small, but pairs 8s and smaller I will just fold against bad player who are unlikely to fold after raising.

However, if my stack is lower than 5xbb and quite a bit below average stack, then I would take those coin flips anytime trying to get back to the things.
