With the villian's raise, I'm sure that he was going to call my all-in, but was this the right play? Do any of you basically call an all-in with A10o? Any comments are appreciated.

This one is a tougher call than the 66 hand you posted. I'm leaning toward pushing here, because a fold is going to leave you at barely over 2BB, and there's a good chance that you're ahead of the SB. I think it's probably worth taking the plunge. But based on reads that I might have had, this could change.

similar hand happened to me the other day (5 handed though and i was second smallest stack and smallest stack min-raised from utg) I pushed with ATs from SB over the top and got berated when i lost to his A9. "over the top with At?". have to make these moves at this stage or youll just get run over.

What's the deal with the button-limp? That is pretty darn odd. Between the button limp and the SB's play, I am mucking. The button and SB may go at it right now. If they don't, there could very well be a bust before the BB gets to you again. Or you could wake up with a hand. Or you could get lucky on your BB.

Of course, as your opponents' skill navigating the bubble increases, this becomes more and more of a push.

If this is a lower buy-in tournamnet, I think you do have fold equity pre-flop, so this is an easy push for me.
