I personally would. I think I overplay KJs though. Thoughts?

I think you are OK to push this. Blinds are coming, you could be down to 5BBs very soon. I don't have an argument w/ your line.

if somebody calls, no. if everybody folds and you pick up the 300 in blinds, yes. i say flat call and play the hand out. you have a great drawing hand but a terrible all-in hand, as you are probably beat or dominated by anybody who would call (AK, AQ, AJ, AT, KQ, AA, KK, QQ, JJ, TT, 99, 88)

Calling is appauling. Nuff said.

And by the way, im folding this. Atleast in the 20+2, people will not laydown any hands that have you beat basically. And you need that for this play to profit, i think.

Agreed, especially limping in to the chip leader, you're asking for trouble.

It was either fold or push, I would never call here. This was a 215, if that changes anybody's opinions.

That's a whopping 8.5% of someone's possible hands.
