This is a UB $5 NL Hold 'em tourney.
There were about 100 people left out of 626, and they paid the top 60 spots.
I was well below average in chips with about 3200 in the cutoff, the button player had about 2300. Blinds were 150-300, with a 25 ante.
Everyone folded to me, and I had ATo. I raised to about 1300, and the button player moved all-in. It was about another 1000 to call. I called and the button showed AK. I got no help and was way down on chips.
As I see it, there were 4 viable options on how to play that.
1. Fold
2. Limp, with the intent of folding against a raise.
3. Push all-in
4. Raise a smaller amount, like I did.
How would you guys play that? Also, once I was reraised, would you call the other 1000?
