Also you shouldn't be thinking about always just shoving all-in. Just making a normally sized raise work much better in most cases. Your goal is not always to make your opponent fold, it's to make him make a mistake, whether by folding when he should call or raise or by calling when he should fold or raise. So in your 2nd example if we shove and he folds pocket 5s for example, we're allowing him not to make the mistake of calling when he's behind in terms of equity. [/QUOTE]
