Default A4o(only 3 BB\'s)

ok. I don't play as many SnGs as some of you but I think I hold my own. Play as "cneuy3" on pokerstars and "budsara" on fulltilt.

The hand in question I got called huge donk by one of the other players and I just want to verify that I made the correct move.

The table is full of tight nits but I don't necessarilly think anyone is that good. They seem to understand some part of a play tight early open up late strategy though.

We are seven handed and the blinds are 200/400. As you know this is rare to see in a SnG. UTG has 885 chips and opens all in. It folds to me in the cutoff and I look down at A4o and have about 1300 chips. I re-push all in over the top of UTG. the rest fold and UTG turns up 33 wins the race and I'm down to almost the felt. Someone then calls me a donkey for re-raising with A4o.

Obviously I'm sure you guys would have all either re-pushed or folded as calling would have been idiotic but I'm wondering if you guys think the push is the best line. I figured UTG range was huge and although I know A4o isn't a huge favorite over much i figured it was the right move considering the blinds and antes factored in. Another thing of note is the BB had stack of about 2000 to start the hand so even though they would have been given decent odds to call..... it would have cost them alot of their stack to call. I anticipated a fold from them.

The other things I should add is this a $24 and most of the players at this level respect re-raises even in cases like this where they shouldn't as much.

Push or fold?
