Are you near a bubble? What are blinds like? Considering you have 11 BB's with stars new big antes it can never be that bad, but this could be close.

I believe this play is -cEV. You could wait for a better spot.

because of the antes i only have a M of 5. I am already in the money, and trying to make my way to the final table. 25 players remaining. my stack was crippled by a AK vs 77 coinflip lose.

u lost the previous hand? Then I hate it

maddis · #7 09-20-2007, 07:01 AM

no I lost the hand before the previous hand. but my move still sucks, I guess?

I don't think your stack is small enough to warrant this push. No need to panic yet.

Agree with the other posts. I'd be more likely to shove with 56s than Q7os. Wait for a better spot. It also looks like you are tilting as well after the previous loss...more likely to get a call. If it was the other way round, i.e. you had lost a big stack and then you had a monster like AA or KK, then I would definitely push as again, someone will hopefully call thinking you are tilting.

I just checked a pushbot chart and if your opponents are calling with a range of 66+ A6s+ A8o+ and KQs+ then you would need to have an m of 2.7 or less to shove Q7o with 5 people to act behind. I'd say fold this and wait for a better situation, unless you think their calling range is tighter than this. It's prolly not though, esp. this time since as others have said you might appear to be tilting.
