Default Serious KK preflop hand SUPER TUESDAY FT

Final table of the Super Tuesday. I was playing quite agressively when we were down to 2-3 tables and I've been repopped a good amount too. At the FT though, I have calmed down a bit since the mega stack that was to my right was raising 3-4 times by orbit.

UTG: was at my table when down to 2 tables, he called some of my raises and folded to continuation bet. He also 3bet me all in when I had him covered approching the FT bubble. When he raised (about once per orbit), it was for 4X BB but here he just elected to call UTG.

Button: I didn't have much respect for this player. He was playing quite tight and he was short.

FWIW, the minreraise was INSTANT and the UTG's all in took about 1 second (so almost instant too)

UTG calls t4000, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">roo_400 raises to t15495</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t26990</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t100762</font>, roo_400 ???

Odds knowing button will call for sure:

Main pot (3 handed): 43K to call in 140K (3.25:1)
Side pot (heads up): 40K to call in 40K (1:1)

This is a pretty sick spot.

What are the chances the button misclicked?


I really want to say fold here, but i don't think i could.

So the UTG limpinstathreebetshove into bigger big stack after a raise and an instaminraise (possibly a misclick but generally worth a pause for thought) at a big paying FT can be what else that we can put into a range?

AK? Didn't want to raise and get flat called by the chip leader opening every hand and be put in an awkward spot with a decent sized pot out there?

I can buy it but is it going to be the case often enough that he'll now shove after the action, without a pause for thought about the action?

I mean we're talking about kings pf where some spaz has just fattened the pot for the massive CL with seven left so I really don't want to fold here, but if this is AK like 25% of the time, is that gonna be enough to make this a call?
