as far as mtt's, the common spot for a resteal is :

1. late position raiser with a midstack makes a standard raise.

2. your on the button, sb, or bb with roughly the same size stack.


since the original raiser has such a wide range, you pick up the pot a BIG percentage of the time. Since they arent shorstacked they'll fold everything besides total monsters.

dont listen to me though, ive never done it without a pretty good hand. i see some of the well known mtt'ers find good enough spots to push any 2

since low buy in players are ususally loose, imo you dont really need to have it in your bag of tricks. in spots like this people just cant fold their PP or AJ, AQ.
