$5: 8 Players Left. Too aggressive?

Just be aware of your own chipstack, you don't have enough chips to c/r. You're gonna end up giving him the odds to call with all kinds of crap.

You said you made this decision based on pot odds so I thought you might be making more this way. What kind of flop were you hoping for? Even if you had flopped your king it could have easily been dominated. You put in another 10+% of your stack to see the flop.

Actually, I got an almost perfect flop but did not realize it at that moment. Now, if a K comes I likely have someone reverse dominated. It is clear to me now that pushing the flop was easily the best move.

Here is the result: UTG+2 turns over pocket fours and my fives are good. Final pot: 1880. I more than double up and eventually go on to win the SnG. Thank you all for the responses. I definitely learned something from this.
