4 handed, short-stacked, A8o on the button
 
Meh. The converer is a little goofy again.

Table Table 13969 (Real Money) -- Seat 5 is the button
Total number of players : 4
Seat 2: BB (2380)
Seat 3: UTG (1215)
Seat 4: Hero (1380)
Seat 5: SB (3025)
BB posts big blind (400)
** Dealing down cards **
Dealt to Hero [ Ad, 8h ]
UTG folds.
Hero?

A couple of strange things about this hand. There is only one blind, so the advantages of stealing are lessened (400 versus 600 chips) and the other little stack is in the BB next hand. Instinctively this screamed "push!" to me, but maybe these conditions (as well as others I might not be considering) have made me question it. And, if this is a push what would the pushing range for most people here be given the the big blinds have pretty reasonable calling standards?

So the SB is the button right?

Either way this is a clear clear push. I would shove way more then A8o
