9 handed. I'm sitting with 2500, most cover. Game is VERY soft, but in a high variance, noone ever folds way.

UTG raises to 100, 5 callers (told ya) to me in the sb with AKo. What's your plan in a game like this guys?

A viable line given my stack size, though I feel like others in the game would put me squarely on AK with a shove here. FWIW, if I had under 2k I think a shove is the only play.

make it 800 and do some live stuff that makes it look like a steal. if anyone calls just shove flop dark.

LOL, this is EXACTLY what I did. Well, almost exactly. Made it 850 pre. UTG+1 called. I shoved dark. Thoughts?

There's 635 in the pot, you have 2500. The opener has a loose range, as well as all the callers? If so, why would a shove indicate AK precisely? We could consider pushing more liberally, and their perception wouldn't be gaining them anything.

pop it. maybe 800-1k?

Do I need to re-eval my game if I think pushing > calling > raising here?
