PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (9 handed) internettexasholdem.com

Button (t4970)
SB (t3830)
Hero (t3975)
UTG (t6297)
UTG+1 (t2140)

<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP3 raises to t1100</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero ???


looking at the blinds this bet made by vil is crazy, he's betting 11xbb , if seen this many times in low stakes MTT most of the time its a small pocket pair, i have a decent stack and im holding AK, i know this is gonna be a coin flip.

am i folding here, considering i outplay most of the ppl in these 5 dol MTT's???, and consider the fact that he may do this with aq,aj trying to trick a smaller ace to call?

i never seem to be able to just fold here..

You obviously didn't fold.

I would probably push.

Auto Push...and I don't think its close.

You have $100 invested already being in the BB. You have the SB's money in there, so you are getting the right price even if you knew villain had QQ. If there is any chance at all that villain does this with A,Q or A,J (which there is at the $5 level) its and auto-push.

Well, villain could probably do this with A9s. Also with KK+ though.

Anyhow, we are ahead of his range. Push.
