Greetings everyone,

I have a question about these pushing ranges I came across in a publication. They are for MTT play and you’re still far from the money.

10 BB
UTG 88+ 66 ATs+ A5s-A3s AQo+ KTs+ QTs+

UTG+1 88+ 66 A9s+ A5s-A4s AQo+ KTs+ QTs+ JTs

Same ranges pretty much with 9BB in UTG and UTG+1 position. I’m confused why it would say it’s ok to push with 88’s or better, than with 66’s, but not with 77’s?
Could this just be a typo with the 66’s?

Thanks for suggestions or advice!

I’d guess it’s because 66 beats Ax on 2345 and 77 does not. I’ve seen that gap before, and assumed that was the case.

The other assumption would be that people won't be calling your all-in with 22-77 and A2s-A7s so there is no real difference between 66 and 77 except for the 2345 donkey thing.

I think that these are fair assumptions. A lot of people will be calling or protecting with with ATs+/AJ+/88+ or 99+.

Why is the 2345 a ‘donkey thing’?

So then you guys are saying that the charts are correct in pushing 66’s...but not 77’s....and then with 88’s+ ???

ive never heard of 66 having more equity than 77.

if u use a software tool and create a calling range and put 66 and 77 in there, youll see youve got more equity with 77. i could be wrong tho vs certain calling ranges so i dont know 100%

id suggest finding multiple push charts, do some comparing and go from there.

there is tons of shoving charts out there.
