Re: (555) Time to fold a +$EV spot again (?)
Well this situation's a bit different. I mean, your EQ Fold is higher than the Nash results would have you believe, because the next hand is set up perfectly for you having UTG in the BB. If button and UTG were the other way around it'd be another story, because button sucks a bit and would call you looser than he should by NE, more than likely. So yeah, I'd fold bottom 15% here ish I would say, maybe even as much as bottom 20%.

[/ QUOTE ] It's +ev to shove ATC here, the question is about if we should pass up our thinnest edges with the bottom of our range so that we can gain larger +ev situations on subsequent hands, based on stack sizes I think we should definitely fold some amount of hands, how much of our range is optimal to fold is the most compelling question.

Re: (555) Time to fold a +$EV spot again (?)
i don't quite understand maybe some of what people are saying here:
if we push now and he calls, either we win or we lose. if we win, we won like 2100 chips, and are in the money with by far the big stack. if we lose, we lose 1850ish chips, and are still the chip leader. -assuming utg folds the next hand (possibly not a great assumption, but i'm going with it for right now), we can push pretty wide on the button, getting back 750 chips, and push pretty wide the hand after, getting another 750. if we don't have our blinds folded to, we're still up 750 on the orbit very likely, and then are on the button again where we can keep piling on the big stack pressure pushing any time we're first in. in all, i don't think that the bb guy is going to call and win enough, nor the loss for getting called and losing big enough, to make me scared of pushing everything here.

That's the best case you could ask for, predictable behavior and won't think outside the box, most likely is calling range is going to be uber tight in these spots, so no I'm not passing up on "x" now to receive "y" later.. Against a "pro" or an idiot I might think differently of it, but even with that based on Citanul post, thinking twice about it would be a mistake.
