Thanks guys! At 10BBs I'm certain it's a no-brainer. It was complicated because blinds were increasing every 30 mins and my 15 BBs would quickly be 10. But if I just wanted to cash, I probably could have coasted. But I wasn't there to make $180 (cashing was $400 but the buy in was $220) |

At 15 BB you'd be a donk to fold AK there. |

ANDRE are you serious?? YOur hand is a nO BRAINER...you dont have nowhere near a stack big enough to get away from AK there! Good raise and its a AUTO Call.. very bad luck he has AA in SB when u have AK..it happens. Most players will rasie with AJ AQ even kq or random hands aginst a button raise. Even a solid guy with 20bb stack should threebet aq there if the have qq or lower u in a race with right odds to get a workable tourney stack. you are calling 20000 to win 28000 right odds against all hands except aa and kk. you could also have him dominated too. |

Thanks guys. I thought I was being too results oriented in second guessing. Good news is that I'm back and after an hour of play I am the table leader. I got a guy to lay down AQ on a Q-T-3 board. I had 7-7. I did it with a check raise (minimum raise). |

I don't know what these guys r saying (maybe there just tryin to mess with ya haha) That AK call was completely standard with the blind structure (especially if your playing to win) Def. call in that spot |

andre - I busted out. Damn. I wasn't there to cash so when I raised from the button with ak and the sb shoved it seemed Luke a massive overbey/resteal. I called and he turned over aces and I was out. Seems pretty obvious in that sitch that at best you're in a coin flip race against a pocket pair. |

524 entrants. 84 left. 54 is the magic number for cashing. 15 is the number for making the final day. |
