I'm a little surprised you guys say to push here, since my M is over 7. On the other hand, I did make the call...
yeah, I got so in the math, I forgot about how the payouts are so skewed.I'd call here too, even if not +cEV.for me it's a push preflop because I'm calling a push anyway if I had raised that muchRemeberr that post I made asking if it's ever right to call a push and not push, even when you expect to be a dog..for pot odds, etc. Well, this was not one of those cases. Unless you were looking to set up a 50/50 or worse chance to dbl up, then pushing is better, imo. If you can fold here, then I think you can argue for a raise (maybe less of one)Which reminds me, your preflop raise took the fold option away, imo. Regardless of what my math above said. (I probably screwed up by giving you 50/50 instead of 55/45 vs overs)

I guess the only point for not pushing is that if there are multiple raises behind me I'm folding.
yeah, i guess that a good reason to just R/CAI. Still Id just push this. The odds of 2 players behind you waking up with big hands is slim
