Default Re: 100r FT KQ in SB

There are only 4 possible results from the limp/push line:

1. BB checks (bad)
2. BB raise/folds (very good obv)
3. BB pushes/ hero folds (bad)
4. We have a race

But how realistic is #2? With these stack sizes I think BB is clearly in push mode. Raise/folding would be dreadful.

So other than that, the best-case scenario that can happen by limp/pushing is that we get it all in. Knowing that, I think pushing to begin with is clearly better.

Curtains I assume you just 3x your very good and very bad hands here and shove the slightly good stuff?

Goggles/Exitonly calculations FTW.

I dunno if this play is all that necessary as opposed to just plain opening for 3x or whatever.

Btw if a bit shorter (14bbish) instead of open shoving I like going and going.

i agree with bel0w here... when i first read it, i liked it, but you still have plenty of play left imo to let him have this one, and set it up for a trap later on.

I would generally fold or limp very bad hands. I would 3x some marginal hands and AQ+, 88+. Usually limp big pairs. Push Ax, small pps, and most 2 broadway cards. I would vary this based on the opponent and the situation.

If I had 25xBB, I would limpreraise more.

Here I think open push >= raise/call > limp.
