Default Re: 25$ - Is this Push ok?

The only hands that you are not a flip or better against are 99, TT, JJ, QQ, KK, and AA. If that's not "decent shape," I guess idk what is.

w a hand that does not play well post flop and your astack size a shove or fold are only options. calling invites others to join party turning 88 into set only hand. thats bad at this stack. ok now the key here is interpreting the miniraise. is it a weak steal or monster? i cant say wout being at tbl bc tightness works both for and against you here. tight is good that hell fold to repops in marginal spots. bad that he has shown some strength all in all i like the shove bc i think mini is weak more than it is strong and you need chips

Don't see any other way to play it unless you want to just fold, but that seems weak/bad.

I think with a push here, you are turning eights into a bluffing hand. I really cant see the orginal raiser calling with anything but 99+ and AJ+. But ive been playing really weak recently so who knows..
