I find pushing pretty damned bad with these stacks. As has been said it gets rid of every worse hands, most likely even AK. Calling is weak but against overly aggressive party donks it is often the best play. "re-evaluate on the flop"

His range is much larger than that. Despite his stats he can get pretty feisty preflop.

SB= Bluthton

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

SB ($600)
BB ($573)
UTG ($599.60)
MP ($422.90)
Button ($4680.15)

Preflop: SB posts a blind of $3.
3 folds</font>, SB (poster) raises to $21, BB raises to $66</font>, SB raises to $197, BB calls $128.

Flop: ($400) T, 5, 7 (2 players)</font>
SB calls $400 (All-In), BB calls $373 (All-In).

Turn: ($1173) A (2 players, 2 all-in)</font>

River: ($1173) 4 (2 players, 2 all-in)

Final Pot: $1173

SB has 8d 7d (one pair, sevens).
BB has Kd Kh (one pair, kings).
Outcome: BB wins $1146. SB wins $27. </font>

Very true. Bluthton is a "tight" player but makes some really weird plays preflop, especially HU when he thinks another player is trying to make a play (and it always seems cardsharkk is trying to do something tricky). A fold here is out of the question. I think pushing 200 BBs lets him play a little too optimally so I would just call.

Call in position and take a flop.
