Losing to 2-7 off suit PF ALLIN is worse. Should've shoved him in PF.

After the hand SB said he didn't want to make BB fold pre-flop and only win 30 chips with his aces. I figure if the guy would fold to even a minraise preflop you're not getting much out of him no matter what you do.

Gaining the 30 chips from the bb is better than losing 270 chips because you played the hand horribly.
