$33 multi- Average stack 3,900ish, blinds 150/300, we have 5,300 which obviously means we RULE! Or, just quadrupled up or something- whatever.

Anyway, it's folded to CO who seems like a decent player (read- wide range to push here) pushes for 2200- We have those crazy eights- if it matters, one of them is a club. SB and BB are about average stacks, we have them both covered. Soooo...

I push, if CO is ok as you say, you are easily beating his range. Also you may even get SB/BB to muck 99/TT. Also losing is not catastrophic, as you will still have an average stack.

Those snowmen have saved my ass more then once, also I usually start my pushing range with this hand.

I shove. If CO is a good player then you're well ahead of his range. If either of the blinds wakes up with a bigger pair, then you'll just have to spike an 8.
