1) fold and all-in the next time i am first to act with any 2 cards
2) you're obligated to call with pot odds there. i personally just push that when i act initially preflop but i play hardcore pushbot style when i'm around 10xBB late in tournaments.

God I hate AK. I'm surprised you weren't playing against me somehow even though I didn't play last night.

#1 - fold
#2 - push, instead of raising, as played, you have to call

I wouldn't say necessarily good.
Almost just pushing w/any hand when first to ACT. Suppose roughly those 50%+ Hand Range ?

Seriously. I'm all in when I'm first to act with any 2 cards if I fold here, and probably 2 hands in a row. Hero will be button next time, and I'm pushing if CO folds...and I'm pushing a wide range from CO if nobody calls the button push.

Hero is about to run out of FE if he doesn't steal a lot or get lucky and double up. Hero will have roughly 0 FE at the next blind level or even if he just has to go through the blinds one more time and loses another 4500, he needs to accumulate chips NOW.

After folding the first hand, you REALLY hope that UTG folds and then you HAVE to push any two. Your stack can still damage the other two stacks (barely). If I successfully steal on the button I might fold some of the really bad hands UTG because big stack will be big blind and will call with almost any two.
