Here's an example hand, but I'm asking about the more general issue of when you have about 20BBs, it's 5-7 handed, and it's folded to you in CO+ with a weak/mid ace (i.e. probably a bit better than A2s as shown below, but maybe you guys will inform me that this is, in fact, strong enough) or KJ/KT or QJ/QT. Am I asking to be kicked in the face by pushing people around here? I'm not in push/fold yet, but I wonder if by folding in these spots I'm passing up some chips.
