    I'd probably lay this down without a read that he steals often. With <10bb this would definitely be a shove.
    Our brains have just one scale, and we resize our experiences to fit.

    At the $11, where I play people don't steal that often, so I would need a read on this opp that he steals often.
    At the $27 I would imagine people steal often enough to make this profitable but a read would still be nice, I'd much rather be doing this with 9Ts or J9s however because if he calls you are likely dominated.

    I think this is a fold. Definitely with 2/3 or so what you have I would shove. I think my range for shoving here is KQs, A10+, or any pair. Shoving isn't bad; this is a close one IMO.

    I don't think we can assume a wide enough range against a 24/5 to make this profitable. We're dominated by anything that calls, I think you have to fold this.

    I like it if we assume his stats means he knows how to play SnGs.
    Just dipping my toes back in.

    This is a very good point. Sharkscope stats would be insanely useful here.

    yeah, i dont like doing this unless ive seen late position steals frequently. To resteal against a 24/5 is too much a risk, especially if you have no other reads
