Default Re: Should these 10\'s have been shoved or raised?

What everyone else said: PUSH. In addition to the your stack size vs. blinds, you're getting some folding equity here. You'd rather take the blinds + 1 limp and stay in the tournament than race off in a coin flip situation (but if you have a read that the player will push with 22-99, but not call your push then it's a slightly better move) Remember, if you push you have 2 ways of winning the hand. He folds or you win a showdown. If you raise here and he pushes, you can only win by winning the showdown.
