I was just curious if you think your hand is good here should you push? If you know he calls 100% of the time here with overcards should you still push?

I really really hate coinflips on the bubble. That's why I fold here. I'll pop it into SNGPT if you like.

Just to save me some time, let's pretend that UTG is open-pushing and you are faced with a decision to call (because he aint folding when you push most of the time-again this is an assumption for time savings). Running this through SNGPT, villan has to be pushing all the way up to the top 35% of hands before this is profitable as a call. That equates to: 22+,A2+,K5o+,K2s+,Q9o+,Q8s+,J9s+. I just don't see him raising this way UTG. That's why I fold.

As to your question about overs, well of course you fold if you know he's got overs because you dont want to flip on the bubble.
