Call 253 to win 2256 if I counted correctly. Almost 10-1. I'd say it's worth it.

I'm essentially getting 3:1 to call right? That's how I should be thinking about it?

Oh, my bad. Still it's call 500 to win 2756. That's still 5.5-1. Still worth it.

I think its standard, with your stack. If I'm one of the other stacks I'm not playing this like this at all.

The converter always messes up the pot size when there is an all in. If you add it up by hand, you get a different number. And better odds for you.

I'm thinking it's worth it even without proper odds. I guess that's really the question I'm asking.

Do yourself a favor and produce some FE by pushing the flop.

You mean for the purposes of keeping the bubble alive? I suppose that would have it's advantages.....not sure if I would do it though.
