    himself fucker.
    With the EP limper, you lose enough folding equity to make this a bad push.

    I don't hate it, depending on what your read told you about his limp. You have some fold equity here. On the other end, I usually won't limp late unless I'm willing to call SS coming over the top. His most logical holding here in my mind is a PP TT or under, and you're happy to run against 99 or below here... even an A or KJish is OK.

    Get out of the 5/1 SNGs.

    I think you have to have AT or a pair minimum to push here, unless you have strong read that the limper will lay down (given that he outstacks you 5:1!)

    You have to wait for AT or better to push when an ep big stack that could easily call you without even denting his stack commits some chips to the pot.

    You could push QTo next hand if it's folded to.

    I'd push pretty much anything if it was folded to me with your stack.
