I vote push here. My aces aren't running so well as of late which makes me happy to have no callers and a 15k boost to my stack. In theory your happy to see a caller here too. You really don't want to play it with more than one though.

Push isn't overkill and it looks like you have AK and the pot is big already. Just do it...

Default Re: Wierd Aces ITM - RESULTS (4 those who care)

Thanks for the feedback. To me, the key factor here was my horrid position at the table. While 15K chips would help, 60K chips gets me out of jail wrt the bracketing big stacks.

FWIW, I have never seen a min-re-raise this late in a MTT & it threw me. I decided I wanted a caller more than I wanted to limit action, so I bet the pot, 15K, which was 1/2 my stack & offered 2:1 to any caller. All 3 insta-folded & I took the pot.

In hindsight, this is FPS and I thought at the time that I butchered a good opportunity. I think a push here has a better chance of being called. Thanks for re-inforcing my analysis.

and YES, the $10 MTTs on Full Tilt are that soft. I have been feasting lately including finishing 2/500 last night in the 7:00 PM MTT [/brag] [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
