Default Instacall here in satellite with AA, right?

$11 DS to PS $1M. 2 seats awarded, everyone else at FT gets $35. Blinds 100/200.

Hero (BB) 3155
Villain 1 (UTG) 965
Villain 2 (Button) 4935
Villain 3 (SB) 2945

UTG raises to 300 (leaving 665 behind). Villain 2 shoves. Villain 3 folds. I'm in BB with AA. Obviously if I call and win, I win a seat. Call and lose to villain 1 and I win a seat most of the time. Call and lose to villain 2, I'm out.

I think the stack of V3 makes it a call, right? How short would V3 need to be for you to fold here?

Just want to be sure I"m not crazy, really tried to outhink things when it got to me.

If you fold will you win the seat more than 80% of the time? I sure doubt it. Instacall.

Very easy call. You are tied for 2nd in chips basically. I think it's an easy call with KK, and QQ is where it gets interesting. AK is probably a fold, and JJ probably is too.
