17 players left. Pot is 4k preflop, i have 5 people behind me with mixed stacks. dont too big of a read on the big blind other than i saw him mashing the pot button preflop a handful of times when he changed to this table. am i in too early position to push here?

Pretty sure this is a shove even if they call perfectly.

standrad raise. and this is not +ev always, sheetes ran ajs, which is also not always +ev, but you should stil shove ajs. A10s could be fine depending on their calling range. I rather standard raise and see who shoves u first.

^ Do not do this. Raise fold is terrible here. You have an M of 6 you need to shove if you're going to play the hand.

the bet pot button is your friend in this instance.  Hitting bet pot will make it 9000.  This should be enough to let every one know you are serious.  If they raise you, it is an easy fold.

Yes The more I think about it, I think you are right.  If you only bet 9000 I think someone may try to bluff you.  You should probably bet about 11800.  Then if someone raises you it is an easy fold.
