I'm wondering about how many blinds you have to push any Ace or any King. I know 10 bb is standard but I mean sometimes you have around 10 bb or less and cards dont come. How many is the limit to push even if someone has raised before you on table ?

It depends on the tournament , in a satty I might try and hold on as long as I can. If I'm in a regular tourny at around 10 BB , I'm shovin with almost any A.
But if there's a stack as small as mine or smaller, or if I'm 1-2 places from the FT , I'll be more patient . Good Luck.

Hi, im new here...
I feel desesperate, with 7/8 bbs, but i apply some things like:
-From utg, i'm tigh, AJ AK, AQ, premium...
- From HJ and button, without any raise, I push any ace, and king, and big suited conectors, with raise only push with the hands that mention in utg...
-From small blinds without action, i push everything.... because i have "live cards"
bprpm...

My opinion

I like to push about a third of the aces and kings. You can count them together. You hit the ace or king a third of the time. One of them in hole. Then on table there are five cards. Three flops give you 15 cards. there are only 13 different pips. As far as the raise i would just call and see the flop about 2/3rds of time. Your do to hit. One third push all in and fold the winner.
