If other guy understands gap concept, yeah... But getting called by Qx sucks.

Re: $11: Easy push with J-9s?
 

Depends on BB's calling range.

If he will call 22+, Ax, Kx, Qx, JT+, then it is pretty strongly -EV. If he will call 22+,A2s+,A3o+,KTs+,KJo+,QJs only, then it is +EV. (The latter is the 'maniac' calling range for SNGPT, but honestly, my experience is that unless you're viewed as tight, the calling range in SB v BB is bigger than that in a 20 so I'd guess it's even bigger in a 10).
