22: Fold Aks in the bubble?

[Iq75]

No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (4 handed)


CO (t2200)
Button (t10700)
SB (t2400)
Hero (t2700)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
1 folds, button raises to t700, SB calls, Hero pushes?

Button had raised to 700 last 7 times of 9 when he was first-in. SB and CO were semi decent so we all folded a lot to those raises and button stealed the blinds.

I figured that if button and SB both call and we both lose to button I will be 3rd. Anyway buttons raising standards seemed very loose (as they should) and my AKs should look very good against his range.

Is this the right time to take a stand? Or would it be better to call and push (or c/r) almost any A or K flops and check/fold otherwise (button is going to bet almost all flops that are checked to him)?

I'd push.

Doesn't this answer your question? Button's bullying the table, SB's getting tired of it, you have fold equity and are WELL ahead of their ranges here...plus you don't want to play AK OOP, and you DO want your AK to see all five cards. Of COURSE you shove...this is an absolute no-brainer.
