You don't have to push but you are a bit short stacked so you can't really limp and hope to make the set. For me it's push or fold as you seem to imply, so let's have a look at it.
I can't see any of MP3, CO, Button or SB calling unless they have a good hand as it is a decent proportion of their stacks. The BB is most likely to call with any 2 cards as he's getting great odds with half his stack already in, even if the BB calls and beats you at least you still have chips. The only risk is that one of the 4 inbetween wake up with a hand.
I think I'd take my chances and make the push. I haven't won a hand in 5 days tho so it's probably not a good idea to listen to me!

MP3 and CO are kind of in the middle and probably not calling... and the shorter stacks might wanna wait for a better position or might call you with a bad ace... id push it

Easy push. Even pushable from UTG given your smallish stack
You could prolly push much lower PPs like deuces here as well.Last edited by OrionPro; 08-07-2006 at 04:52 AM.

What have you done in the last 10 hands? 20 hands?

That only matters if we push 62o. 77 is almost a monster given the circumstances. Hopefully our opponents are very loose and call with stuff like A5 suited (that happened the last time I pushed 88- unfortunately he paired his ace)

If I've pushed the last 5 hands in a row, I might be inclinded to lay this down. I realise that 77 is a pretty strong hand but if I've been bullying the table around with all ins every other hand, I COULD lay this one down. I'd rather not get called here and I could easily be called by 2 overs (something like KJ) if the table has grown sick of me.
That being said, I'm pushing this 95% of the time.

Probably not much. I wasn't paying attention.

First in vigorish.
Lots of good rakeback options at http://www.rakeguard.com/?raf=KRE8R
KRE8R probably has about seventy college funds in his NL5 roll.
