Shove and pray

What about this line of thought:

Assuming the button thinks he's ahead, what hands might he have?

AQ
KQ
AA
KK
QQ
Q7
J7
77
JJ
QJ

Any more?

How many of these would your avg player limp on the button?

Aren't 77 and QJ the most likely to be limped? Maybe KQ?

J7 most would fold

The rest, most would raise preflop

Doesn't that make 77 and QJ extremely likely?


And hero has 3300 left if he folds...
