Default Re: 20NL Royal draw gets donked. Easy push?

Let's say we have 40% equity in the hand.

Let's see how often we need to get a fold from villain to make this a good push.

Our share of the final pot if called will be $. 39,8$ * 40% = 15,92$.

We need to put 18,3$ more.

There is now 3,2$ + 4$ = 7,2$ in the pot.

Number P is 18,3$ - 15,92$ = 2,38$

Its actually like betting 2,38$ into the pot of 7,2$ with no chance of winning.

To be fair we need him to fold 1/4 to make this breakeven.

And that is with 40% equity which I think might be low.

You be the judge if fold or push is right.
