There are too many players left that can wake up with a real hand. Just fold.

To be fair there's only 5. A push here isn't really bad.. personally I would do it sometimes, it depends on the table dynamics.. and other times I would just let it go. Very read-dependent, this one.

Agree 100%. I think pushing or folding are both pretty close here.

The only time I push this is if the people before me have usually been raising or limping pf. That means this might be the only time it's folded to me in this late of a position. The bonus is I have an OK hand, so if I've been quiet and the table isn't giving me push opportunities- I take this spot, if not I fold and make a move or two next orbit.

Give us some more info/reads next time.

Wow this is really suprising because I push this every time. I think this is about the cutoff at this position for me though. Is this a push from the CO? What hands make this an easy push from this position?

Going through 5 people is what makes this so marginal. If you get called you can't be in good shape. I think pushing AT+ here is "easy" but A9 and even A8 are probably marginal. I'm tired and not really running the numbers at all though, so those are my answers just by feel.

I sometimes make this push, though hesitantly. If I were to guess it is pretty marginal but I just hate eating blinds with 6xBB. If I have 7xBB I fold this. If blinds increase before my BB here I push pretty much every time.
