my general rule of thumb, which i either stole from this forum or some book, was that if my preflop raise equaled 25% or more of my chips, i should just be sticking my whole stack in there.

for instance, in an 800 chip SNG, if someone openraises to t100, and I have QQ, i'm not going to raise to 300, i'm just going to push.

or, late in an MTT, if the blinds are 2000/4000, and i have 36000 and it folds to me in the CO with T9s, i'm sticking all my chips in.

or in a situation like this, which we lovingly refer to as "pwning."
