Shove. I'll push up to ~ 13BBs w/ Ax here. I believe it's unexploitable. Gets me thinking how wide we can just jam ~13 BBs here. 34%?

13x or less is a good rule of thumb for me as well, especially against loose passive. I might standard raise against super tight opponents or regulars because I know they fold anyway.

i guess A6o is a poor example because i pretty much push this without thought as well.

say i have A2o, same stacks, same villian. you guys still like a push? i know pushing is +EV and unexploitable, but it is just barely +EV. i'm wondering vs a 30/2 if completing is better (fold to a preflop raise), then bet most uncordinated flops, like K82 rainbow, etc. would that be more +EV than pushing preflop? these 30/2 guys are really easy to play, basically if you get any resistance just fold.

I shove A2 as well. It makes life much easier but I'm not sure if it's the best route.
