Re: Is this push insane or standard?
I will say it: this push is terrible. It's not like you've got the whole table dominated chip wise. You lose this and you are the shortstack. You're UTG and playing on the 22's.
It always kills me that people constantly say that the players on the 11s, 22s, and maybe even higher are idiots. This is true for the most part. That means that they will pay you off when you value bet. It also means that pushing in spots like this is pure folly. (Also why I think C betting whiffed AK on level 1 is just chip spewing, but that's another topic altogether.) The risk / reward ratio is horrendous.
