Default Re: Easy push right?

I don't know if this is correct in any way, shape, or form, but it works well for me when in this situation and it's something I just sort of made up so anyone else feel free to correct my fuzzy logic.

If the blinds hit me and I'm gonna still be like 3x the short stack -and- the shortie is about 1.5BB I'll wait out the marginal situations that have me pushing into the big stack assuming he's gonna have to survive two all-ins with utter *ish* to survive. So in your case 1) You're not going to be 3x the short stack and if shortie doubles through once and the blinds hit you once you're now shortie, so I'm looking to push worse than AJ for sure. 2) I do NOT see this as one of those marginal situations, and to emphasize the obvious, you have the best hand most of the time.

I push and hate it when I have to race biggie's fours.
