Just checking- ez push? Plz comment.

[SNOWBALL138]

This seems like an easy push, made easier by the fact that I've seem the BB fold to my SB push when he had about ~3x BB. The reason I'm asking is b/c my bubble survival is
-7.3% below average over 128 tourneys, and I feel the need to double check some of my bubble moves.
Thanks in advance for any comments.

Yes very easy push. Your hand doesnt need to be nearly as strong as it is to push here.

Thanks! I'll be posting some of my other bubble moves in the future, and hopefully I can find some leaks. I know my 128 tourney sample size is small at the moment, but I am taking a "learn as you go" approach and would like to incorporate the advice of experienced posters here so I can improve my ROI (1.6%) and ITM (32.8%) drastically.

-All the best

Yes, this is an easy push...

Your 128 tourney sample size is the grand scheme of things is nothing. My last student posted a negative expectation over his first 230 tournaments. He wasn't playing bad, he was actually playing very well it's just the variance hit him early. Keep learning, keep looking for ways to improve and don't be so concerned with the numbers...results will come given: time, patience, learning & overall sound playing

Definately a good enough hand to push with in that situation. Unfortunately, the BB actually had a good enough hand to call. Unlucky.
