I'm not sure about pushing here. The cold-calling nimrod is probably way behind and may fold to fireworks, and you lose value on that. A push gives you your best shot at isolating on the min-raiser, which is not necessarily what you want since you're probably just 60/40 or less against his range. However, I'm not sure how you could ensure getting the other guy all in. A three-bet from you here could trigger a push from the min-raiser, which is about the same as you pushing. And a flat call doesn't guarantee anything except that the cold caller sees a flop, which may actually discourage him from continuing if his hand is weak.

So in short, I'm not sure. Doesn't seem like a push is optimal but I can't find the alternative that is.
