Re: Worst Push of all time!
 

Unlikely that someone's calling a smaller raise with the 7 and if they have the 8 or ace they will call your push, so I like it.

why in the world do you think someone would call with the 8 when the pot is so small on the river?

Because I can't read the board and thought the 8 made a SF?

Re: Worst Push of all time!
 

I think it's fine if you feel that BB or MP1 would call such a large overbet with the A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
A raise to 15 or 20, though, would give the ace an opportunity to reraise you, thus making them more likely to call your all-in due to having more money in the pot.
I don't think you'd lose much from raising to 20 instead of pushing, as anybody who would only call such a raise with the ace isn't going to be calling your overbet.

If you think he'll call with the ace, I like it. (And he probably will.)

Re: Worst Push of all time!
 

Just curious what people think about the flop play. Besides a King... what are we calling the bet for that we hope to hit?

Is this a good call? (Aren't we really calling for 3 outs)

MP1's bet doesn't show much strength given that a weak jack or ten will bet when checked to in his position. I think you can count the ace and queen outs as fairly clean.

Not sure i would call with Ace [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] , so its pretty bad play I think. Bet 30 or less look less suspicious.
