Title: Is it right to Push?? Post by: Flea on January 30, 2008, 12:30:25 AM Down to the last 8 of a tourney, top 5 pay.
4 handed table and I'm 6/8 with 7 times the BB roughly. UTG and I get pocket 2's. Am I right to shove all-in or should I wait for any hand with paint bearing in mind I'm about to be BB for 1/7th of my stack. I'm partly asking because I got knocked out when the board two-paired on the river to knock me out (which is a danger with only holding 2's). Title: Re: Is it right to Push?? Post by: jakally on January 30, 2008, 12:50:37 AM Don't know the other stack sizes, and that can make a difference, but generally push is fine. A pair 4 handed is highly likely to be the best hand, and with 7 BB's you still have fold equity. Title: Re: Is it right to Push??

When you get called 22 has significantly more equity against likely calling ranges than most holdings with a single face card, especially when you're probably going to give up at least 1.5 BB's trying to find one.
