Reads? If it's an unknown ss player I shove. If villain has been tight then I call. That's a wierd over raise, that usually means mid or small pp or AK. I ship this in.

Pretty easy shove here, 6x his raise size means it's push/fold & QQ means it isn't fold.

All that and a 4x, nobody does this w AA/KK , shove with a fistpump.

All great points. It seems there was nothing else to consider. With the raise at 4x, I was thinking exactly that; smaller pp or AK. Although, had seen opp 3-bet with AQ to UTG raiser. What I was afraid of was him calling with AK, seeing as how my stack is considerably larger than the small stacks.

BTW, I lost to AK, but I only second guessed myself because I was thinking about the equity of my stack at that point in the tourney. I really didn't want to risk it when there were 4 shorter stacks, but I guess we play to win. Thought maybe a call, but then I don't get full value.

I was just confused as to whether I should've played it a little more prudently considering the circumstances aside from being ahead.
