Default Party 55, Who\'s the donk here?

Blinds 250-500. I am chip leader on the button with QJo.

Chips counts are:
SB 1640
BB 3280
UTG 1190
HERO 3890

Folded to me, I push. BB calls with AK and cripples me.

I think I did the right thing but ...

But I wouldn't mind being reassured, or told I'm wrong. Hope this helps.

Sorry.

I cant tell you if it was +EV exactly as Iam intoxincated.

I would fold, DEPEDNING on read. I have UTG to steal from and push around.

Fair enough. The only read I remember having was that BB seemed solid.

Yeah, like I said can't really tell you if it was +EV.

I myself don't really rely fully on ICM, more on reads, and my intuition. But ICM is good.

If he was tight, maybe I'd push yeah. But really whats the point, I have to short stacks to f*ck with, Im looking good, ya know?

I like to think about, "could I take these guys ITM, and heads up?" to also make my decisions.

Now this is just my little concept or what have you, but I like to put all that together when making a decision on the bubble, unless Im tilting.

I also just realized blinds are 250/500. Id just let 3 go at it mostly.

HE is the donk and should only be calling with big pairs

Not really. 2nd stack has only 6bb and he probably knows that hero is pushing a lot here. I think calling with AK is correct for BB here.

There's no way calling with AK is correct there.

As to the OP, this is a very easy push.

EDIT: actually, I just plugged it into SGA, and it's a lot closer than I thought. Depends on your read of the BB.
