Some stealing spots from the SB
Hi all,
I feel that I should steal more often from the SB. I try to preserve my stack and just raise with better hands. Once in a while, I steal with 8-4o or something like that.
The following hands are from 1.20SnGs at Absolute Poker. I wonder if you would try to steal in these spots (shove or raise) and why.
HAND 1: villain was 51/5 over 39 hands. I folded because I think he would call loose. In retrospect, I should push here (I was getting used to multitabling).

HAND 2: Villain was pretty tight (10/2). However, given his low stack, I think I would not have fold equity here. He would call with any high card and my hand was pure trash.

HAND 3: The BB is the same villain of hand 2 (he won a huge pot). Here I knew he was tight and my stack was big enough to cripple him. I shoved here.
