Hi, $1 bi turbo,
had a few hands on him, but seemed like a bit looser than the rest of the nits at the table, so i thought that pushing w 5 9 is a bit too loose against him. Is it?

I think I would like your shove better if you had between 7 and 12 bb. you are at a stack where even fish recognize that your range must be wide, so against all but the nittiest players I would only shove like 50% or so. I might shove simulary wide with 10 - 14 bb, but the difference is that I would drop those low suited gappers and alike with the short stack, and add K2o for example, basically hands that play good hot and cold.

I would shove just about 95% here, it has folded to us and we still have a touch of fold equity, the SB has some worry about a possible overcall from the BB so often it should get HU against the BB. If we do take it and they fold our fold equity improves a lot for the next hand or two, and I am willing to gamble anyway if called.

im pushing anything suited here lol
