3rd again-is this bad ?

[phrosty]

I've come across this situation a couple times lately and I'm not sure if I should just let it go or push given stack and blind sizes? I don't want to play for second but.....?

i DO NOT MIND the way u played it. Preflop push woulnd't be bad either. This is assuming no reads in a $22/$33-- in a $10, i MIGHT play for 2nd, because FE is so limited in a 10 game

preflop push? why is this better? I felt like with the OESD
at the very least I wasn't drawing dead. I'm more interested in knowing at what point based on stack/blinds it becomes correct to push (when it is wrong to fold)

no gripes

pushign preflop isn't bad, if u know he has been raising alot... i often make pushes like these when SB limps into me.. sometimes they limp w/ monsters, but often they limp w/ crap and fold.

If you're in the SB with this hand, folded to you, I am very, very sure that should be pushing 100% of the time, with your measly stack, of course.
