I push this often enough, and have wondered if it might be a mistake. I just feel a standard raise is begging BB to come over the top as he actually has a decent amout of FE. So I either fold or push, most of the time push. But it's these hands that usually gets me into trouble.

you'll only get called if you're in serious trouble, drawing to 3 outs at most. winning an extra 675 chips is not really worth it here. i would treat this just like any other blind steal attempt. it doesn't even matter what your cards are. just raise to T1,200 and make him make the decision of coming over the top or calling. losing 1,200 won't hurt your stack as much as losing almost all of it.

i would rather push here with a hand like JT or 89s than A2o because u have at most 3 outs when called
