Default Re: Too soon to make this move and a question.

I make this move every day and twice on sunday. You are getting shortstacked, you have what figured to be the best hand (I assume you are not full-tabled at this point). You will take the blinds the majority of the time here.

If a reasonable raise would make you put in over 1/3 of your stack (as it would here), you are almost always better off just pushing. If your standard raise is 3-4x the BB, then if you anything less than 10x the BB you may as well push.
