Default (22s) blind stealing turns into pot odds?

$22+2 Sit N Go (10 handed)

BB = 200

Hero (4370)
SB (3740)
BB (1890)

Preflop: Hero is button with 98o
Hero raises to t500, SB folds, BB bets 1690 (All-in), Hero calls t1390

Standard? Or what would u do differently....

If you're leaving yourself pot-obligated after the raise, then just push it all in initially - leaves no decisions to be made on your part.

That would be fine except the small blind has like 18 BBs, thus the risk-reward makes it a bad play.

Default Re: (22s) blind stealing turns into pot odds?

ya the small blind is why i dont push here, i basically just wanted to know what hands i should be making this bet with that might potentially lead to me getting 2-1 on a call. For example if i had A5, i would be less likely to call his push seeing as what his range would be at this point, b/c i could very well need 3-1 in that situation. Which leads me to believe that something like 89o might be a better hand to make this raise with. Thoughts??????

I think folding is correct here.
