Default Folding AA on the bubble....

PartyPoker $22 Speed Tournament, Big Blind is t600 (4 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

CO (t1240)
Button (t6360)
Hero (t3690)
BB (t8710)
HERO IS ALL-IN
Preflop: Hero is in SB with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">CO folds</font>, <font color="gray">Button folds</font>, BB calls t3090

O.K. Everone knows this is a good push. It's +3.17%/+3.17$, against a big stacks loose range. My question is that I currently have $24 in chip equity right now. Shorty has $9 worth of equity right now. If I push and lose, I am risking $24 in equity, in exchange for a $3.17 in increased equity. I am basically handing shorty $23 in equity, if I lose. If I win the hand, my equity rises to $33. And I am going to be the table captain. Is this risk worth it?

I've never folded AA preflop in a sit and go. I've played a few thousand of them now.

Only old people play with horseshoes. Only gay old people and leprauchans play with purple horseshoes.

Slight over-analysis of a bad beat?
