    Default Bodog $15+ 1: 88

    Blinds 400/800

    UTG 3000
    Hero [88] 3400
    SB 850
    BB 2850

    UTG calls
    Hero ?????

    I wasn't sure to even call, raise, or fold with the stack sizes and blinds.

    Not too many reads; I was multitabling. Guy was pretty passive as he limped alot of marginal hands though.

    hero has everyone covered, and a very strong hand.

    all things considered, SB with less than a BB, if you lose ur potentially as low as 600 chips so on and so forth. You have everyone covered and people wants ITM. Take advantage of it. I push this. Being timid here with 4xBB wont let u pwn people hard.

    push - if he limped a monster, so be it. In this case he may have a weak pp or A he wants to play against the shorty, but he doesn't want to bubble if one of the other big stacks has a hand.

    wHOOOOOOOOO dEEEEEYYYYYY!

    Ok good enough comments I'll say I automatically pushed it.

    Even with the instinctive push, I just wasn't sure if that was the best play with a shorty in the SB hoping me or the UTG gets into an AI showdown.

    Hahahaha. I'm not even a Bengals fan, but I'm a fan of Chad Johnson and a fan of Chad Johnson riverdancing.

    Push it and dont even give it a single thought. There are 2k in dead chips out there. If you dont push this every single time u are going to lose a lot of chips late in SNG's

    Jenks, OK
    I'm going to stray from the crowd. I push this 99% of the time. There has been (in the last week infact) that 1% of the time when I'll have a strong enough read on someone to know that this sort of a limp is something they reserve exclusively for AA/KK.

    Without that rock solid a read, this is an easy push.
