possibly - it depends so much on the table...you don't really want to put your chips in vs. what is most likely 3 overcards and quite possibly 4 if you feel like you have a chance to steal blinds, which in this case you still have a very nice stack to steal with and stealable stacks behind you.

A situation where I think you need to repush is if you think valerossi9 will fold...but if he is a wild big stack calling anyone who tries to slow him down, folding certainly is not bad.

Folding seems to be the right move to me

Folding is the +ev play here.

I agree this is very read dependent. With no read, I fold.
