    Default Bad Push?

    Was just going over some old hand histories... do you guys think that pushing here was too weak??? Blinds antes are 475. I would classify my play up to this point as somewhat tight.

    I like how the guy tilts with T7o. This definitely makes it a brilliant push.

    Though maybe wait for a better hand here since half the players are desperate, so you cannot expect to pick up the blinds.

    Hmm Alex ur right there's only 1 more hand to come before he's UTG.

    But, probability is high next hand is at least slightly better than 53s?

    Probabilty says that luck is the only way he's building a stack to have a chance to win. We know his cards are live. Can't say that with T9, T8, J9, A4or whatever other crap you're getting next hand which will probably be two cards that aren't even on the same city block with each other. Suited- a tad better. Connected- a tad better. Live- asking for more will have you a blind better than you are now because you're dumping off t375 in the next 4 hands.

    In an MTT, with 7bbs with 20 ppl left 3k/6k blinds with a 300 ante, I'll wait. With t25 antes and all but 2 ppl in bad shape out of the money, I'm pushing.

    Thanks guys. Nice to know that you agree with my play. Everyone else at the table thought I was a complete moron afterwards. I remember taking alot of heated words from 2-3 players.... but I ended up placing 2nd in that one so what do they know
