This seemed like a pretty easy push, but SNGPT says the calling ranges have to be pretty tight for this to be a push (66+, ATs+, AJo+ is +.01%). Is it because we're 5-handed that this is so marginal?

U have a good chance to make the money,a 44 push into 3 players is very marginal.I fold for certain.

[allhappythoughts]

You still have 3 to act. They could even call you with A5o and be flipping with you. You're the shortie and it's 5-handed so the range is going to be much wider. I'd fold.

I'd give it more consideration if I were on the Button, but I'd probably still fold there.

[simonpoker]

the reason isn't that there are five players left its that you are pushing into three players which is bad with 44

[RRizGod]

ship it in and dont even think twice. Your not on the bubble. There is meta game considerations too.

I always push this here.

44 is too light imo but it's close. I'd probably push it from the button.

Under 10 bb 5 handed is a lot of pressure to find a hand to go with. This may be the best you get for a while. It's true that A5 is a coin flip, but who calls a big chunk of his stack with that unless desperate?

You need chips. Don't we want to race here for a shot to double up?

[KyleH186]

I push this, maybe its a leak but I can't assume im gonna get a better hand than 44 before the BB hits me again which I do not want.

I push this.
