Not suicidal at all.

[Matt R.]

looks perfectly fine to me too. I think folding would be a pretty big mistake with these blinds actually.

[freemoney]

i think this is pretty standard.

[Newt_Buggs]

what if you had no reads on the table other than that there was no obvious manical donk?

I'm surprised that this is so standard (its definitly -EV by ICM). I posted some desperation pushes a while back and most of them were considered bad. I'll definitly have to find some more of these and post them up.

I can dig it. This is your last chance to push before the blinds hit you again into guys who aren't desperate to call.

[freemoney]

i never, ever use the icm i have never looked at it, i read peoples posts using it and i can appreciate its limited use and it has improved my understanding, in terms of this situation you still have good FE and the blinds are pretty significant.

folding would be suicide

pretty sure youre wrong here. pushing 32o from Co with 4xBB is usually +EV unless its the bubble

But folding would be even worse, as you give up FE plus blinds hitting you.

Plus, you can get your opponents to lay down K5 here. And that would rock.
