Re: Curtains Hand - Early Position Push/No Push
I agree pushing isn't terrible here. My move would probally be to fold and call a push in the bb next hand.
If I push here I will be called by a hand that beats mine. If I call someone from my bb, I could easily find myself calling an any 2 push from a desperate shortstack or loose large stack, which will be ok considering my odds.
Maybe it's also better for image. You are kind of expected to call from your bb, but pushing with J7 UTG shows you are capable of pushing trash.
I'm not sure you have much FE at all. Shortie in the bb, another shortie who will have an itchy trigger finger, and a couple of large stacks who might challenge a UTG push from a shortstack.
There's also always the chance that your BB is folded to you.
No matter what you do it's a $hitty situation.
