Re: Short stack problems FTOPS $1K
1. usually fold, unless you think that the BB is not calling wide enough then shove but i still dont like it
shoving weak aces from early position is terrible imo, even with ur stack, you are so punished by peoples calling ranges, much rather shove Q 8 utg then A 4 in the 2 hole so hand 2 and 3 should be folds the last one i think you have no choice but to gamble with K 10 cuz ur infiintely short and u have no fold equity anyways if you wait |

Re: Short stack problems FTOPS $1K
Fold 1-3, call 4. Ax is bad for shoving from EP, although not for the reasons given by Zugwat. 4 is a call, you need like 32% equity to make it neutral EV. Vs a top 5% range, you're almost spot on. Chances are miniscule you'll get a +EV opportunity anyway, so get it in.

Re: Short stack problems FTOPS $1K
any reads on UTG+1 for hand 4? I think 1-3 are definite folds, and 4 is just a pokerstove problem, put him on a range and work out your equity from that, and take a little bit off because BB is still to act.

Re: Short stack problems FTOPS $1K
1-2 definite folds. 3 - probably fold, but depends upon the table. If we have a tight table, I might raise 3xBB and see what happens. Folding is my normal play early position with this hand though. Last hand, i'm getting my chips in.

Re: Short stack problems FTOPS $1K
1. push...ur very short and have a good chance of taking the blinds here, which are big% of ur stack
2. & 3. While both are close, ur just too likely to get called by better hand w/ that many opponents left to act. I'd wait on these 4. push. ur likely crushed but u really can't wait any longer. At least u may be able to go heads up if BB folds. With that few chips, going heads up with a decent hand is about the best u can hope for. |

Re: Short stack problems FTOPS $1K
1. A definite push for me.
2-3. My shortstack game has improved since I stopped shoving weak aces from early positions. 4. Re-raise 30 more, he might fold [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] You're too short to fold this IMO. |
