Re: SB push with 53s ... stay with me
More info that I sorta alluded to in the OP - average is 15x, I have slightly above that, and villain has 5x.
I think it's the PERFECT situation to push because it's so borderline. Villian isn't auto-committed as he would be with 3x or so. With 5x, he could fold here and the SB next hand and still have 3.5x, which he knows still has good fold equity during the next orbit (since people were playing tight and minraises were taking down the pot half the time preflop!)
if he has 3x I fold, 4x is tougher, 5x me likey.
