Default 34K Guaranteed 20+2 Do you guys like my push here?

It was a short table, I had 7x the BB UTG w/ a poket pair.
I dont care about moving up the money, I just wanted to get the first place price and the title.
Do you guys like my push here?

What position were you in? The hand seems messed up.

He's UTG. It's a mess to look at. Preview your post before you submit and you'll get more responses.

I woulda pushed, too.

He was UTG.. I don't like pushing a baby pair with 4 larger stacks yet to act.

i have to strongly disagree. you have just enough chips (7xbb) to not to need to do something this reckless.

See, I think he has just enough chips to be able to do something this reckless with any chance of success. As it worked out, he got both the blinds to fold. If Robozilla had folded, he would've increased his stack by over 20%. Since Robo called, he was a heads up favorite.

If hero sits this hand out, he passes to the BB next hand, and now his pushes don't get the same kind of respect. The more I think about it, it's reckless to not push.

Thank you for all the replys.
I'm glad I made the right decision to push there, unfortunately river wasnt with me that hand.

The good news is, this is like the fifth time I play MTT and I finish 21 out of 2000 ppl made $200 in 6 hours.

This is fun and I'll keep playing this every day.

Thats exactly what I was thinking, If the blind passes me, I'll only have 5X BB left. There is 1 avg stack and 2 big stack behind me, how do I make them fold later on? Plus the game was 7 handed, which decrease my chance of stealing the blinds.
