I hope you aren't calling a 50k 3 bet with your entire opening range OOP vs a good player. Pot odds matter but so do the rest of the streets.

I know that aggressive play = good play is drilled into your mind early and it's mostly true, but it's a lot more gray than that. Sometimes the (second) most passive play you can make is shoving so you don't have to play any poker.

Calling isn't the safest play unless you're just going to give up without a set. I would say the safest play is shoving because almost always you'll get folds. But I don't think it makes the most chips.
