Re: Standard fold preflop?
His M is 5 and he's 12x BB and he decided not to push against 3 remaining. If he's a good player this might indicate only high PP. But if he's not a good player, one who is overly chip-preservative, then only committing a quarter of his stack puts him on a wide range and you should shove as he will fold a good portion of that range. You have the M to do it.

Re: Standard fold preflop?
12BB is a tiny bit soon to start shoving it in just to steal blinds in every occation. A normal raise of 3BB makes it possible to escape if the flop is way too dangerous. Also many people think one have a monster when one just raise to 3BB so they dont dare to call ... even with hands they normally maybe call an all-in with. On the other hand if the players after me are donkeys I shove even with AA. But against good players who understand the game a raise to 3BB are mostly better.
BTW one can call with the intention of doing a stop-n-go in this position with a PP if one think FI has AK/Q and dont se e an A on the flop one shove it in and hope FI dont call.

Re: Standard fold preflop?
This one is very close and I can see going either way pushing/folding. Calling is a terrible idea. I guess I am probably leaning towards folding but that i because I am not a big fan of coinflips when there is still a lot of play. But I don't think pushing here is a bad play. My decision could very well hinge on my read of the player.
Any reads? PT stats maybe?

[/ QUOTE ] SnG misapplication alert. A stop and go is designed to get a mid PP to fold after the flop. Getting AK/AQ to fold unimproved is bad poker with 66.
