2 tables left, about 14 players. In the money already. I can probably limp to the final table and pick up a few extra bucks but I want it all.

600/1200 Ante 150 - No Limit Hold'em
Seat 2: SB (14,725)
Seat 3: BB (15,760)
Seat 4: S4 (23,389)
Seat 5: S5 (7,060)
Seat 7: S7 (8,766)
Seat 8: S8 (19,698)
Seat 9: HERO (13,230)

Dealt to HERO 9

Folded to me on button. Options?

I just open shove here and pick up the blinds. If you're called, you're most likely flipping. If you open shove and get called by TT+ just bad luck. I think raising is going to get some aces or kings in here that may not call a shove (A8o, KTo) that would give them a flop that may hurt you.

==> easy shove in a 5$ Turbo if you want to win this thing, you have to gamble at some points, this is a very good spot imo...
