The question is if you plan to get ITM or if you play for first (not meant ironic!). If you play for first this is an easy push as the probability for one of the blinds to hold a monster is marginal and you are in need of chips.

If your main (!) target is simply getting ITM instead it may be a fold here. Are there many (real) smallstacks which are auto-all-in in one of the next rounds? Is the payout-structure flat enough that getting paid as 20th is good enough? Then you could fold here and wait until one of 20 busts before you´re blinded out. But remember that in the last case you´re preventing yourself from climbing higher in the payout-ladder.

But in general you should play at a level where simply getting ITM is no real goal for you (check your Bankroll-Management) - in this case the simply answer to your question is "Thank god for this hand and folding everybody around you - AND SHOVE!!!"

And last but not least: with A8 against KK you are less than a 3:1 dog (about 70:30)! Not a real desaster yet (until the river is dealt [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]) ...
