I am not sure if this was a well thought out " if your going to put 30% or more of your stack in the pot you should put it all in play" or a total donk "derrrrr I am a donkey let me give you all your chips" play. You be the judge.

Easy push. I think previous poster meant to say that it is very far from the money.

glad to here that both you guys think that was the right play. Are there any other ways to play it? Or was push the only options.

I am sorry I am not trying to be a smart ass. But when you say it is not even close, do you mean that its not even close to being a hard decision? Therefore it was the correct decision?

"close" refers to the general profitability of a play in the long haul. (EV)

If its "close" then its close to breaking even.

'not even close' = easy easy push

I'm not that good, but I see it as an easy push as well.

a) You need to double through
b) You can't afford to get blinded out waiting for JJ+
c) You have FE
