  5. As standard as standard gets
  6. Very standard. Against most opponents you are missing out on a ton of value from not shoving T7s as well.

    If both players are perfect:
    <TABLE class=simple cellSpacing=2 cellPadding=3 border=1><TBODY><TR><TD>SB</TD><TD><TD><TD>71.9%, 22+ Kx+ Q2s+ Q4o+ J2s+ J6o+ T2s+ T6o+ 92s+ 96o+ 84s+ 86o+ 73s+ 75o+ 63s+ 65o 52s+ 54o 43s <<what you should be shoving</TD></TR><TR><TD><TD>BB</TD><TD><TD>19.6%, 55+ A3s+ A6o+ K9s+ KTo+ QTs+ <<what he should call with if you are shoving what you are supposed to be</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

    If he's calling wider, you have to curb your shoving range some, but in any event, KdTd is a pretty huge hand for this spot unless he's calling some really wide ridiculous range.
  7. Jennifear, how do you come up with these "perfect" shoving and calling ranges? I've never been one to use ICM...

  8. I don't know about you, but I'm shoving 32o here... from my experience few people call as lightly as they should, so you're going to get a great deal of fold equity... but then again I just busted out of my last tourney today after shoving 75o on the button, so what do I know?
