I know this question maybe nooby, but I was busted a lot of times in this situation.

SNG NL 800, 50/100 6 players. Other 5 donkeys expect them to call AI with Ax, KTo, QTo, JTo, any pair. I would expect 2 or 3 players(500, 600 & 800) to be busted soon (say within 1-3 rounds) with their bad play. I t800 hold 88 UTG. Is it 100% correct to push? Am I out of position?

Folding equity in this all fish situation is quite bad, I have no position. Versus..... survival equity.

Edit: Just finish a fishy game, 50/100 6 players, me 800 99 sb, fold to me I push. bb 1200 calls with K8o?????? He caught his flush, busts me. Ridiculous, no freakin folding equity at all.

Another question is it even profitable to play in these crazy games with standard play? Folding equity isn't there.

First, if you push all-in there is no longer any position consideration. Once your all-in, you just sit back and watch the cards turn over.

Second, when you're short stacked, and want to push you want to do so as the FIRST in the pot! Dan Harrington calls this First Vigourish! Going all-in once another player has already entered weakens your move/push because you should first want to win the blinds without a fight and 2nd, if you get action you want it to be against only one opps. First vigourish give you the best chance for both objectives.

Third, an underpair is very close to a even race so don't expect to win more than half the time but if the blinds are eating you up, it's as good a chance as most other hands and slightly better than several others such as K-Jo. The object you should be shooting for is to give yourself a chance to get back into the game - if you get it great! If not, well at least you gave yourelf a chance!

Last - Don't worry about fish making sensable moves. If a fish starts to make sense, take a break from poker, you're going into a mental breakdown!
