Default MTT early push...right or wrong?

This takes some set-up.

I was on a very bad run of cards during the 30,000 Bodog, I ($2,750) hit AQ on button and called a 4X MP ($5,800, LAG) raise, BB ($3,900 LAG) re-raised, I folded to AK v. JJ. That was the only hand I played during the first hour. Table is very aggressive.

I planned on opening up after the break and on the 5th hand raise Q9 (4X) suited from button, SB calls. Not a typical play, but playing only 1 hand in the first hour, I have to figure my image is very tight. SB plays along I win a nice pot with 2 pr.

So here we go.

In the CO ($3,500), I catch AKo and raise it to 2 limps 3.5X. The BB, same guys as above, (lost a big SD [K10 v. 55] and went from $8,900 to $3,900 2 hands early) tries to push me out with a min. raise, limpers fold. Remebering the play earlier with the AQ (my fold) and the Q9 SD, he has to put me as weak and stealing... I re-raise. He pushes

I call. Right or Wrong?

As it turns out he pushed with K8s and caught a good board of 7/9/10/6/5 to felt me, but the initial call against is push?



The always wondering,
IceBergie
