Default PP11s: 2 purr on bubble

Blinds 300/600

CO: 3100
B: 660
SB: 11430
Hero: 4760

9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

2 folds, SB completes, Hero checks

9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (Pot: 1200)

SB bets 2400, Hero?

My read on SB is that isn't interested in bullying, he would've obv shoved pf otherwise (unless it's a TRAP!). Any pair or a FD is my guess. Fold?

As far as the hand goes, a push has to be the right play. However, the question really is how important is getting ITM to you? If it was me, most of the time I would fold this and expect the button to go out in 4th in the next two hands and then work on coming in 1st. If I was in a "play for 1st" mentality, then this has to be a push.

I like a fold here. You are likely ITM next orbit. Let the big stack have it.

Yeah hero will have about 7BB after the fold. With CO about to pay with 5BB. I know there is no guarantee B goes out, and the big stack would likely fold to a push. Maybe I play too weak here, but I still fold to the big stack.
