    Deep in a tournament is it a bad idea to jam small pocket pairs when your in the BB and have less then 10 BB left. I came across this situation playing a 15k 70+5 Ko on FTP. The blinds were 500/1000.

    I think you need to be more specific. Ok, so you have about 10,000 chips at the 500/1000 level (no antes?)? Who is in the hand, what are their stack sizes? Is it bvb and the sb limped in with a similar stack? Did 5 people limp the hand? Did someone raise UTG and there is another caller?

    Poker is so player dependent, outside of obvious questions (SB pushed all in bvb and I have KK, should I call? answer no he obvously has AA) there really aren't many hard and fast rules.

    Do a search for pushbot chart. Google is your friend.

    With 10bbs you should be pushing a hell of a lot more than pocket pairs.
