75/150 850 chips, 2 table tournament 8 players remaining, played 3 hands in 1 hour and still got played back at everytime.

2 mid-seat limpers, raise all-in on button with 33. Thoughts? I saw this as a good time to gain some chips or coin flip. Of course the big blind woke up with Aces, which seems to happen everytime I push against numerous limpers.

Thanks, that makes me feel better. Guess I'm being too results oriented. It's just frustrating when I feel I have the limpers figured out but then mr. Random blind has Aces.

Just a quick note.

I experimented with doing this in cash games, raising heavily with 2-3 players left. I had very mixed results. When I hit my set, I was less likely to get play, because I had raised earlier.

Forgiving that side note, I think the play was right for the situation, and what can you do when the other player has it?
