Small PP HU

[R6MC]

This is a spot I often find myself in, and I don't have a clear idea of how to play it.

Final stages of a SNG, HU and HERO is dealt a small PP (22-88,99) blinds quite high with a 15ishBB stack, VILLIAN covers.

What do you guys personally do in this spot, raise and hope to take the blinds- shove- fold maybe even? Opinions? Thanks for any responses.

HU, I like all pockets and am willing to get allin. with 3-4 ish players, it's quite read dependent.
With 3-4 player, I ofter steal with these hands but have a hard time knowing where I am. Hope for more answers. =)

In General i push, but it can vary hand to hand, so if you can find an example and post it it would be more useful

Yes post some hands for better feedback. This is all in general without knowing stacks/blinds/reads but assuming blinds are high and tournament will be over soon. If I am in SB I push first in. If I am in BB and villian just completes I push. If villian is SB and raises it might depend on what I think of villian and how many actual big blinds I have left. If he is more tight or passive than me and I think I can take advantage of him hu and then I don't have to flip with him right off. If he is hyper-aggressive and likes to miniraise the button I am pushing over top and making him fold or race.

HU the hands are all basicly the same preflop... VILLIAN completes from small blind, action on HERO......?

Would you play change if HERO was in SB?

I think i would just push in both situations, you have quite a bit of FE usually, and if you do get called you are a slight favorite most likely which is pretty sweet

I meant to say I play this way with the lowest pairs. Middle pairs I am reraising all in or calling all in regardless.

That are my thoughts:

It still depends how big your stack is! I don't really like to risk more then 10BB with low pocket pairs 22-66.
With 77-99 it's a different story. I would gladly get allin.(call & push)

Agreed traedamatic. I misread, thinking we were talking about less BB's.
