Full Tilt 11+1 Turbo -> 2 hands for analysis

[die_rich88]

Hand #1:

Read: villan is your standard tight-agg player but pushbot when shorthanded. Villan has been pushing quite often, especially from the button (roughly 3 or 4 out of the last 6 times he was in button position).

I have a decent/mid stack. Do I call?

[Q..]

Can't call first, you are more tight caller on bubble then A9o even given the history.

Second is good i guess, bb will strike you soon, and there wont be better spots.

[die_rich88]

For Hand #1 - if A9 is a no call. What range would you call with? would you call with pairs 66+? what about A10, AJ?

[RexWoo]

I like the call on the first and don't like the push on the second but really I can be wrong and SNGPT / SNG WIZ or their friends would give you much more accurate answers.

[Knightsridge]

I fold Number 1

I push number 2

[RexWoo]

ok I sngwized them

1st he needs to push 30% + which goes down to JTs, K8 ... so it's probably close and depends on reads.

2nd I was wrong and looks like a good push vs any reasonable range.

[tdual]

wait, are you saying sng wiz reports that we should push with 30+ in case 1? How is that possible. Did it put the button on like 80+ or something? I can't imagine in a 11+1 that someone would be pushing that wide, but maybe.

As for case 2
i like the push

[malnek]

both seem fairly standard. i make call on 1 esp against pushbotting regs. 2 is dumb easy shov with like 6bb

[/ QUOTE ]

What I say is that the call is correct if he is pushing 30% or more. I agree that it is unlikely at a 11.

[RexWoo]

And button should probably push ~25%
