I would probably make a more standard raise to 250 or 275 here. You don't mind action on the hand, you have more than 10 BBs, and picking up the 150 in blinds isn't going to help your stack that much. I'd push a re-raise and call a push and I'm assuming that one of the 2 would have happened since you got called. Pushing isn't a bad play by any means, either.

Also, what buy-in is this in?

I am not sure if I call a push from the other similar sized stacks to my standard raise here. I think a pushing right away is ok here or doing a mini raise.

If you win a push without show down you'll lose a bit of folding equity. If you get bullied out of your mini raise you can use that next time when you miniraise a big pair.

Why not? Just curious...

u have 11x bb and bigger stacks to act after u...

i don't think that you are in push/fold territory at this point...i'd do a decent raise instead of a push

I'd expect a PP (AA to 77) to push here.

[brimstone1]

I can't see a single reason to push here, as everybody has said, you have over 10xBB, just make a decent raise and play it normally.

You'd have to have some amazing read on the players left to act behind you, such as: "they'll call with 3 high, and fold everything else."

:P

You fold getting 1.8:1 against a likely coinflip?

[Moonsugar]

Sometimes you should do that.

This is not one of those times.
