Default Re: Live $500 Buy-In NL Hand

I've read most of the posts in this thread, and I think there are some rather problematic arguments here, in any direction. So, I'm interested in thinking about this hand a bit more.

For instance, I'll take Jason's first reply (only to start with something).

Sure you can eat another round of blinds and have some folding equity, but 88 has way enough value here to push. Its not close in my book.

Jason, I don't understand your point regarding 88 having enough value. Clearly, in this situation, pushing with 88 has *exactly* the same value as pushing with 22. If pushing with 88 is not close in your book, then the same should go for 22 (I'll stick to PPs for now).

So, Is pushing with 22 UTG here is such a no-brainer in your book?
