Remember that you're likely looking at a coin-flip when you call an all-in or push all-in yourself with it - and do you really want to risk your stack on a coin-flip? Most of the time you can find a better spot to get your money in. Sometimes you have enough of a stack that you can take a loss. As always in poker, it depends.
