PRE-FLOP
3 folds, HERO is all-in?

SB was silly with his short stack, folding too many blinds. Also some FE over BB. Easy shove?

a push looks fine to me, you have just over 5 BB so you need to make a move. plus it helps that sb is folding too much.

we gain ~1/4 of our stack by pushing this without a call, i like it ,especially with your read on the sb. bb has no reason to look you up without a hand with his stack.

Face card with the chances of making a str8 + good read on SB nh sir.

If the SB is calling around 20% of hands which is pretty tight for the situation, then it depends on what the BB calls.

If he will call with 30% then you should only push around 40% of hands which just excludes Q8 but if he only calls with 20% then your push range moves up to the top 90%.

Since 30% includes hands like K4s and QJ which is pretty unlikely I think this is a good push.

This is where sngwiz ranges can be goofy b/c the BB will rarely have a nice card with range %'s highlighted and say O I must call with k4s. He will often fold Ax up to A6 or 7 if OP hasn't been to active.

I like this shove given reads on the SB.
