All day, every day. With the blinds this high, you cannot afford to wait.

Reads?

Looks like the big stack pushing his weight around so yeah, push.

I would fold this one.
I would prefer pushing the average stack and having the initiative of the raise myself ...
You still have a workable staff, am I wrong?

Doesn't 30/0 mean you haven't seen him raise at all? I'll a little confused. typically blind v blind I think you have to play here, but if he hasn't raised at all (how did he get 5k chips??) AT doens't look as hot. Call and give up if you don't flop something maybe? Folding AT with position getting 3/1 seems weak to me. You'll still have an OK stack to shove next orbit.

ATo in a blind battle with an M of 4 -> shove.

My thoughts exactly, he hadn't raised even one time the entire sng, and then he mini-raises me w/ blinds this big? I still think I made the right move, I was just seeing if anyone factors in that he hasn't raised all game and gives it up.

.

he's a donkey!! especially if he somehow got 5000 calling ppl down. i push regardless, AT is very good here.

[drmcboy]

It's not really a blind battle if this is the first time he's raised the whole SNG. I think he has to have AT crushed. He picks now to steal? Meh.

its cause for concern......but hhhhmmmmmmm

ah i still push 30/0 is a small sample plus hes a donk. we aint garuanteed ITM.

i cant see how im laying this down, christ id love a stop n go here if we could.

[drmcboy]

I really think a call is OK. It isn't like he is going to fold AJ+ or a big pair if we shove, so we really aren't gaining by shoving. If we miss the flop we save chips or maybe even win the pot if he doesn't want to fire with a whiffed A. If we hit and we're still beat, we were beat anyway.

I am not a big stats guy and don't use HUD for tourneys, but no raises in an SNG with the blinds at 200/400 IS significant given he has 5k in chips, unless he made a couple big hands out of the blinds or something.
