  2. I dont see anything wrong with it. You are gonna have to pick a spot sooner or later and go with it. I don't what that guy is doing limping there with AT, but guaranteed he is probably doing it with alot less than A9.
  3. In low limit tournaments (<$20), if someone limps in before the action is folded to me, I tighten my range of push hands, and I would need at least an AT or >77 to push there.

    Too oftenthe limpers with call with a semi-marginal hand, and it's usually at best a race.
  4. good push.
