Default Re: FT of $10 rebuy $35K on stars...marginal spot is it a call?

With these stack sizes, there is only one situation where I raise (and not open push/open fold) -

When I have a small pair < 77 pre flop out of position and I have some aggressive big stacks sitting behind me, who I know will call my push because they are LAGs and they understand what I'm trying to do. In such a spot a stop and go, IMHO works better. I've seen a lot fo LAG's fold to a push on the flop rather than pre flop.

I fold this preflop, especially if I've been aggressive. If I raise I push. As played you dug yourself into a hole and have to call. Maybe at the cu or later do I raise with this and if I raise I shove.

utg I push AJ+, KQ, 77+, otherwise it's a clear fold. You got a better shot at stealing with position in 3 hands when you're the button.
