I shove over this, he could be doing this with a very wide range of hands at these blinds. You're already ITM, getting 3rd here does suck but you have a huge hand and are likely way ahead.

what are you afraid of, aces?

Folding here is just plain silly, 95% of the time youre either flipping or ahead.

Shove all day.

This is a big leak. Shove it.

BIG leak ITM to be folding AK like this.

Thanks for the replies. My thought was to let the small stack bust out (which happened a hand or to later- but I don't want to be results oriented).

I will bow to the advice and plug this leak!

But if you win the hand without a showdown you get some extra chips for heads up or you double up and have a great chance at being a big favorite headsup. I was doing this crap on the bubble too often, boy has my roi went up once I stopped doing this otb.
