$14.5k , bb $3,000 20 people left, top 10 pay. K-8 on button- pushing all in... with a big stack who plays ABC in bb and a tighty in sb? Or do you think its best to wait.
Pretty sure this move is +ev, even if they know you're stealing , but clarification would be nice.

I assume the SB was around $1500 so you have an M of 3.5 or so? I think K-8 is plenty good to push here, especially against the players you describe. You definitely have fold equity unless the BB has a mountain of chips and your stack is getting to the point where after 1 more lap an all-in raise won't scare anyone. Add that to the fact that you are close to the $$ where a lot of players tighten up and I think this is a no-brainer push.
