I might. 6x BB is not a lot.

So in 4 hands when the blinds move through me I will have just under 4.5 BB's. Looking at the other stacks I'm not sure they would fold. What would you need to push here? Anyone else?

QJ, KT, A6, 66 or something like that. Am I being ridiculously tight here? These are interesting situations. I used to push a lot of hands, including Q7s in situations like this, but I have tightened up a lot and my results have improved as well. You have a few chances to catch a premium hand or with luck you can PVS from the BB or steal when in the SB. That's not great, but neither is pushing Q7s from CO.

Yeah, I'm not sure if I'm way too aggro or if you're too tight. I can be a bit of a push-monkey at times and I don't know if this is the right time. I'm sure my game has leaks and I'm wondering if this a very clear example of one. I may try tightening up here in the future and would like to hear from others.

Others?
