depends on the table - on the typical 4/180 loose tables I would fold

this seems a little loose to me - i'd be pushing hands like TJo, A4s, and most pairs

BB is 300, why shove with this hand and get yourself in trouble? If I'm going after the blinds, I'm raising 2.5-3x the BB here and folding to a shove, you'll still have plenty of chips to shove with and double up decently. But more likely, I'm just folding and waiting for a better hand to shove in this position, Ax, Q10 or better, or any pair.

150/300 has a 25 chip ante, you certainly don't have to push here, but when you have a M less than 5 and it's folded to you on the button i have a hard time seeing how a push can be wrong, and is certainly WAY better than raise/folding 1/3 of your stack
