Sure, easy push. BB needs a pretty decent hand here to risk elimination with the SB down to 1.5 BBs.

How is SB folding here? I also wonder if we aren't just potentially tripling up SB with the BB's dead money.

I understand BB needs a big hand, but SB isn't folding much here are they?

I've seen people fold in this position. It is pathetic, but they do occasionaly. I guess if you have any read on BB, I like the push. If he's decent he needs some kind of reasonable hand.

I don't like it. I expect that's heresy, but I don't.

First, SB should call, and I'm pretty thin against a random hand. Second, if BB calls, he's going to have me crushed. I'd rather just fold and let SB take his chance against BB.
