I'm shocked at how clear-cut everyone seems to think this is...

well folding is wrong, and calling is wrong, what does that leave?

Correct play is to clearly raise all but 1 chip, hoping that if the SB calls and the BB folds...that the SB checks it down with you the rest of the way and then if you survive your blinds you are in good shape to money.

Nobody's proved calling is wrong. Everyone's just like "Push. duh." But then you look at the math, and calling's EV is higher.

Calling is wrong because you give the BB a free look at the flop to double up.

I don't see how this has anything to do with the problem?
