I think this is an easy push..most people wont call for fear of cashing and if someone does then you will probably be filling or have them dominated. I doubt one the the last 4 people has AK QQ, KK or AA, but it happens. Easy push

One of the big stacks will call ... no question. Nothing is going past these guys.

Does that change your answer?

Why would it? I fail to see the point of forgoing your chance to win $84 to lock up $12.

Instapush here. Not even close, unless you are a complete wuss and like inching into the money for 7th place.

The wider you are getting called the better. You are crushing both of their ranges if they are calling that wide which means you are doubling more often. You are way too short here to even consider doing anything else.

Good push. You're likely ahead of all calling ranges here. Even if one of those "nothing is getting past them" guys calls, so be it, you're probably ahead.
