Yes, good push. The shortass makes this VERY unpleasant when KT calls and busts you, but you have to grit your teeth and do it.

If KT calls it might be a bad push, I don't know.

I see, thanks all.

So there IS a point where the short stack is so likely to bust that I shouldn't push the two sevens? Give 900 of his chips to the Button so that he has only 300 chips left. Do I have a very clear fold then?

You could probably safely fold if he had like 600 & was about to get blinded next hand.

Fold. You're not desperate with your current stack, and your pushing into a big stack which will call you with a pretty big range that will result in a coin flip majority of the time. If there wasn't a short stack in this about to enter the blinds, then the push would be good.

You're giving up way too much EV by folding. Not only that but you can't guarantee the shortie will bust.
