After reading Harrington on Holdem V2, my results have improved drastically, however there are still many situations where I'm not quite sure what the best play is. If you don't know what M is, it is your stack divided by the total starting pot, and once it drops below 5, you are in the red zone. If I'm in late position, and my M is exactly 3 and its folded to me and neither of the remaining players are very big or small stacks, I will go all in with anything but the trash hands (7 2, 7 3, 4 2, 4 3). Here are some different scenarios late in a tournament:
1. You are in the cutoff with an M of 3.5 and its folded around to you.
2. You are in the cutoff with an M of 4 and its folded around to you.
3. You are in the cutoff with an M of 4.5 and its folded around to you.
4. There is one or two limpers in front of you and you are in the cutoff with an M of 3.5.
5. There is one or two limpers in front of you and you are in the cutoff with an M of 4.
6. There is one or two limpers in front of you and you are in the cutoff with an M of 4.5.
When there are limpers it seems sometimes like its a good time to shove, because the button, small blind, and big blind are probably not as likely to believe you are bluffing than if you shoved when it was folded to you, and they will have to be more cautious since they limpers still have yet to act. And the limpers just limped, they didn't raise, and if they had a great hand they would have raised right?
Anyway, what hands do you guys believe are good enough to shove with in each of these scenarios.
1. You are in the cutoff with an M of 3.5 and its folded around to you.
2. You are in the cutoff with an M of 4 and its folded around to you.
3. You are in the cutoff with an M of 4.5 and its folded around to you.
4. There is one or two limpers in front of you and you are in the cutoff with an M of 3.5.
