NL Hold-em Tournament. 5k in chips, blinds 25/50. Table loose/aggressive, UTG with 3500 in chips raises 225, cutoff and button call, sb folds. $30 buy in, 1200 ppl. Now down to 569 contestants My image 1/9. I go all in because of the dead money of the limpers and I know the opener doesn't have KK or AA because he would have limped, and maybe he will fold on the spot. He calls with QQ and flops a set. End of hand. My first post so any comments on proper posting ettiquete would also be welcome.

No need to put yourself all-in with a drawing hand. You're at best a coinflip, more likely a dog to this guy's PP. Consider just calling / small raising this bet, but all in is over-doing it. Save your chips for another hand, get in the money!
