Yea when I saw this, I felt she was in the wrong position to do this... If she is in the BTN and Stevie raises in the CO then she can shove and leave herself 1bb behind because if the BB shoves and Stevie calls, she can decide to fold and ladder. But here Stevie is still to act before her and will often fold to a shove (his range consist of a lot weaker hands of AQ that were calling 8bbs but not a shove). You leave yourself 1 chip behind when you can see the full action and then make a decision, no?
This question is too complicated to give a simple yes or no answer to. It depends. Sometimes I ~half stack, sometimes I leave one chip behind, sometimes I shove. Here is a simple example if I have 12bbs OTB the SB has 40bbs and the BB has 8bbs. There is no real reason to leave one chip behind because if there is a three way all-in you will always cover the BB, but making it 6bbs could set you up in a situation where the SB calls, the BB calls and then ends up folding postflop, which is a disaster for us.
