It will cost you 600 to call and you are the chip leader with a strong starting hand. I say you push with authority.

John, with all due respect, i don't see it as straight forward as u see it.

I am pretty sure I am never better then a coinflip here and i am risking more than half of my stack to be even more chip leader?

I can pown the bubble with 5000 as much as with 8000 but if i lose i will go down to 2000 and I will be at risk.

Say he is playing face up JJ, is this a call? I am pretty sure that if it is EV+ this is one of those EV+ spot that sometims is better to pass to have more EV+ opportunities later.

i just tried to sngwiz this but it does not seem to handle this type of scenario.

but anyway, even if you put villian on a tight range of 99 AQ you have 48.6% equity vs this range.

so you are basically flipping with an enormous overaly. i don't have the engery to calculate you equity each way (fold, call-loose, call-win), but it would be an enormous mistake to fold here.
