i think the odds are good enough that you're going to get it in against AJ and K8 that you should push. you're also getting some overlay if they both have a pocket pair

True, but I think that a significant % the time I'm against weaker ace/king held by SB, and a pair to CO. And I'm actually in a -CEV spot if that's the case (sligtly +CEV on the main pot, but pretty much -EV on the side pot). The chances are slightly against both having A or K I believe, since I have AK. And since I think CO's hand is better than SB, more chances he has a pair than a weak ace.

Also, the initial mini-raise by CO does show he has a hand, I think. AJ is sure an option, but IMO also 99-QQ for instance (and AK-AA-KK a non-significant % of the time).

The more I think about it the closer it looks. Although at the table I pushed.
