I can see this as close but not "easy". Will someone please educate me. Thanks

depending on how often you've been pushing, I'd push.

Its really just a matter of knowing thats its a +EV play. QTo is getting near the bottom of auto-pushes (meaning I don't really care how tight/loose the BB is, I'm pushing anyway) with these size stacks but most experienced players know thats its still going to be a winning play.

Once you realize its a winning play then its an easy push no matter how close it may be.

Compare this to something like J9o which can probably usually be pushed as well, but is a closer call and not always correct.
