    Any reads on these opponents?

    First one I am probably just checking behind. I don't think a push there is terrible, but I think it's still a bit early for it. If it was the next round of blinds then your play would be warranted.

    Second one, I am folding.

    I'd raise the first hand, you'd push too much in my opinion

    I'd check the KTo (@mike, Hero is the BB)

    1st one I'd make it 300-350 to go and play post-flop with position.. pushing is not a mistake though..

    2nd one is close.. read dependent.. if he's limp calling with some aces it's pretty dangerous.. readless I check too.. you have a nice hand that connects with lots of flops..

    thanks for the feedback

    on the 1st one-yeah,its still kinda early to push for the important blinds

    2nd one-still no idea about it.

    have seen people limps a lot 5 handed or 4 handed with aces on the button and sb?and when i have kj or kq,i push,and got insta-called.

    do you guys play like this?worth it?

    First one I think shoving is fine without a read that opp limps with monster hands. Raising to 300-350, getting called, then c-betting the flop is a recipe for spewing 40-50% of your stack. Perhaps the one downside of shoving is getting called by A9 or a small-medium pocket pair (22-88) and either being dominated or having the wrong end of a flip

    Hero is in the SB here. Whether to shove or fold depends on reads on the limper - but considering stack sizes (the fact that the limper is the big stack and you're the short stack) I would most likely fold it.
