Probably been used by many, for many many years, so I'm not claiming to be revolutionary or anything here 😄. I've started shoving on the short stack late in the game on trash hands. Sometimes not so trash like suited connectors or one gappers
I was always aware of the logic, but never really had the bottle for the execution
When you're short stack your range is huge, so you're getting called with a lot of hands anyway
Historically i'd wait for an ace or a pocket pair, but anyone with an ace is calling so you're putting yourself into a dominated spot much of the time. Similarly with a pp you're usually flipping at best
So why not throw them in with 4 2, or 9 7 off, where you can almost guarantee 2 live cards?
Works for me anyway.......some of the time 😄
