Default $16: Bubble, big stack, a raise and call...

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t150 (4 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

CO (t4265)
Button (t3645)
Hero (t4635)
BB (t955)

Preflop: Hero is in SB with 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
<font color="red">CO raises to t750</font>, Button calls t750, Hero ?

Is this a push?

Only if the CO and button are very good players, and even then I doubt it because the BB isn't shortstacked enough, and one of them might fancy doubling up to be bubble bully. But at 16, a clear fold.

Yeah, I guess at these stakes a lot of players don't think about the implications of calling and busting here. Just curious, at what stakes would you think this might be a push?

Durron I believe was serious with what is usually given as sarcastic advice. But I'm assuming you are joking here? Or are you thinking stop-and-go??

You might be able to get away with a play here if it was a standard raise. Here you can safely assume at least one of these guys is calling with a big hand to boot.
