$22 SnG - short stacked w/ pocket 4s???

hmm, ok I have to learn something from this.

I would have thought this is a push considering hero has ~5BB. Is it a fold because UTG will often call and turn over something like 77s?

Pushing isn't that bad here. Folding is more like "playing it safe". But UTG will fold a large % of the time. If I had any read that UTG might fold, I would push.

UTG sees you pushing from button and sees you are short, he may call with any pair like 66-TT or any 2 over cards thinking he may have a small advantage...

I would wait until i can enter the pot first even if it is just something like 89s if you are entering first I like it better.

that being said, i do not think it is wrong to push and i would not fault that play, just think there is a better spot coming
