is 55 an easy push?

Not an easy one, but harder to refrain from pushing 55 than J5. Conceiving of a scenario in which 55 is good here is also difficult, but at least 55 beats 33 and might get called by 33 as well. The point is that the worse your hand is, the greater the extent to which you have to assume that MP+1 and CO are overplaying their hands.

well, it may not have to be a push, depending on how you want to play it, but it is almost assuredly not a fold. your read on SB would have to be insanely good - specifically, you would have to know that he's not raising JJ out of the blinds, which would be rare - especially with all that dead money out there preflop.
