Dig your push, i can't beleive stupid ass with 55 called. If ur AK wins then the observer goes "i can't beleive he called 55 on the bubble"

I think you slap yourself HARD and then lay it down. Your M=4.5, which in any other situation, even on the bubble, I would say is an auto-push. BUT, on this bubble you have one player with 1BB, and another with an M=1.46. You can't exactly wait forever here, but it is definitely +$EV to fold. Let one, or both, of the others fall away and slide on up. HATE to fold here, but I think you have to.

I pretty much agree with this, there are some times where I fold and spend an hour afterwards calling myself a idiot and move on. In this exact situation I'm dumping the AK and leting mister 460 or whatever bust himself out and then moving on, but theres nothing at all wrong with pushing in the long run pushing in these situations will probably earn you more money then folding will.

Take the comments from the rail in stride. They are on the rail for a reason. You did the absolute right thing in pushing.

Then I'm wrong. You should push. Definitely not an easy call with the gun to your head, though.
