That 22 hand was painful to watch..

Care to explain why open-pushing 22 there is "painful?" Have you heard of the Sklansky-Chubukov hand rankings? Basically, it's +EV to shove up to about 25 BB, which was close to McEvoy's stack size. The main argument for not pushing is that there are more profitable strategic options available. Normally this might be true, but not against Barry Greenstein.
