Since you can't possibly know anything about your opponents hands, you have to push this.

Feelings don't count here.

I am not a 55 player but to me it looks like he is taking advantage of a tight table, I voted push.

I have pushed this situation many a time, but I got tired of being called by a crappy pair, losing, and then having 3 BB left and being stuck in the Big Blind next hand.

I figured I'd fold through the blinds and find a spot in a better position to push still having some FE.

I felt the reward of the blinds was not worth the risk of running into a hand.

I mean, I have 9 BB here, I'm pushing to win 1.5 BB. Pushing means I will only be called by a hand that dominates me or is coin flipping. I don't want either.

I'd have to win the blinds 6 of 7 times to make this risk worth while. Doesn't seem worth it.

U have too push this here.. most of your opppents are going to be fairly tight, some of the shorter stacks will losen up, but this really isnt that bad for you. I think you need to push with top 25% of hands here.

It's +EV to push this face up. Stop being a pansy.

It s a push, failing that a little raise (300 possibly) if one likes postflop play/stop n go, and all that. Fold is horrible.
