Turbo SnG push fest

[PokerPatNEU]

2 table Turbo SnG. Blinds are starting to be 1/5th of most the peoples stacks. Everything is a push blind steal. Call here? I obviously can afford not to gamble...but in like 4 or 5 more orbits theres only gonna be like 3 people left, i want to mass the chips. I thought about it a while

with people left after you, i fold. if you were BB (or maybe SB) i would call.

To play here you need to have a better hand than the pusher (no compelling reason to flip coins) and have both the remaining players not pick up a monster. However, if I was to play this from the SB, I would push to make sure the BB fold anything short of AA/KK/QQ/AK like stuff.

Heh about 10 minutes later...Bubble Abuse. With the only other big stack to my ri ght, every time he folded was a free push to the bubble humpers.
