I don't need to plug it in to know its definately +EV against that range.

Against something like 22+, A2+, KJ+ its a loser (which is a fairly typical calling range), so make sure your are right about your read.

Since you're listening to decent music, I'll do it.

As nottom said, it's an easy push, even with that range (+1.8%). In fact, it's a push with any two cards.

What are peoples thoughts on this push?
I love +EV pushes. But considering bubble and an aggressive short stack. Is it worth it? Would anyone argue for not pushing here? I guess what im trying to figure out is CEV vs $EV.

-EV

Yeah the cutoff for pushing any 2 here is somehwere between him calling with 15% (33+, A8o/A4s, KTs) and 20% (33+, A4o/A2s, KQo/KTs). Against the 15% range you have the green light to push away with any 2, against the 20% range you're looking for a top 40% hand.

That shows you how quickly a loose calling range can punish loose pushes.

If the Big Stack is tight and not defending, the fact that an aggressive short stack is on your right should cause you to lean towards pushing here.

He's going to be stealing from you (and through you from the BB) so you need to grab a few extra chips to help survive.

I don't need Eastie's tool to know the answer.

You need villain to fold something like 20-30% of the time for this to be +$EV. That means you need villain to only call the top 20-30% of hands, which seems awfully generous.
