KK, lots of action, only 30 left
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t4000 (7 handed)
1800 person tourny, 30 left, I'm bouncing around 3rd-8th. Button had just gone from around 50k to 280k to take chiplead by re-raising 2 strong raises with AJo. He was against JJ and AK and got lucky. Ridiculously easy shove here?

Trivially super obvious easy shove. Since this hand got posted, the only question is whether MP1 or Button happened to have AA this one time.

Re: KK, lots of action, only 30 left
no one had AA. I didn't think twice before shoving and losing to 77. But this wasn't posted as a bad beat. I've been reading the archives today about passing up early edges if you think you've got a strong advantage etc. and wondering if this could ever apply to late tourny play, which I am less familiar with.
I was doing really well throughout the tourny and still sitting easily in final table position with 30 left and most stacks way smaller than me. My ITM % has been really good lately but I've been waiting for that big cash and playing to win all the chips. BUT, making the final table was REALLY important to me in terms of morale and the money. basically I'm wondering if it's ever okay to avoid an all in conflict with the chiplead if you're very confident you'll make the final table anyway and have a good shot once there. I know this goes against the "play to win it all" commandment, but I would have been happy even with a $100 cash. I'm just getting into MTT's on a serious level, be please be easy on me. heh.
