$100 18m, chip leader Q5o

you do not want to open every hand that has 30% vs SB range because I think you will be getting re-stolen too often to make the initial raise profitable. you will end up raise/calling trash like this and getting rejammed by BB. if both players are super tight NITS it becomes better because you win more with the initial raise.

Q5o to me is way too loose. Q9 is my lowest off suit queen here.

Excellent; so the issue isn't really our equity vs SB's tight reshove range but just the overall probability of either blinds reshoving (which they will do very often if we are opening 50%+?)

exactly. your decision has nothing to do with how much equity you have vs the SB because that is just an afterthought. 'oh i guess i have to sigh-call because of odds' . Your raise/fold decision is first; will they fold often enough for me to raise this much?
