Seems like a good time to go! Might be the first of many if they fold...let it rip!

This is a great spot to push. The SB isn't going to play too often, and the BB isn't going to gamble with you and the SB so short.

I didn't even see what you're cards were. And it doesn't even matter

Yep, gogogo. Assuming the BB hasn't been stupid loose I'm shoving a lot more besides.

Like everyone already said this is a clear push situation especially with your read on the blinds. When I am at <7 bb I will shove with any two don't worry just close your eyes and shove you have to! I love it when I shove with two napkins and survive an all in and next hand I see rockets in the hole Smile Woohoo! I push again and watch my opponents insta call me Smile The only thing I try to keep in mind in I am called and my rags hold up is how it may have effected my table image. I generally move in with any two until my stack goes back to 10 bb or more.
