$3 Stealing from a short stacked BB
Sorry, no explicit hand, but a few sample situations:
Blinds 100/200 UTG (2000) folds UTG+1 (2000) folds CO (2000) folds BUTTON(2000) folds HERO (4000) J6s BB (800) I have generally been stealing via a big raise in this case and SnGPT confirms that this is correct. What about the case where I am on the button with a big stack, the SB is also a big stack, but is tight, and the BB is shortstacked? I probably don't want to go with an all in steal here (seems to be -EV according to SnGPT), but would a raise large enough to put the BB all in be the way to go? My thinking is that the BB will be forced to go all in with almost any two cards, allowing me the chance to pick up their stack. Even if I lose, I'd still be chip leader. Too risky? Thoughts or comments? Onnel

Post more specific hands. And obviously, this is a turbo-push.

Re: $3 Stealing from a short stacked BB
Alright, here is an example of the second case:
UTG (2000) folds UTG+1 (2000) folds CO (2000) folds HERO (4000) Q7s SB(4000) BB (800) According to SnGPT not a push (and I definitely see why). So what's my line? Raise to 800 and check down if the SB comes along (barring flopping a monster)? How bad a hand would you be willing to put the BB all in with here? Onnel
