$10+1 27 person tourney - 5 get paid, top 3 is where the money is ($100, $72, $48, $28, $22).

button waited a long time before MRing, and he is pretty LAG. The SB played fairly average. I *think* i have the best hand - however, is this a gambling time??

I think I have to gamble here. Blinds are huge, your stack is under a constant drain due to the anties. If you triple up here you are in a great position to get in the top 3, much less ITM. I cant see the second villain min rasing with a monstor. What is probable, and what your hopeing for is AK, vs AK-10 where they are sharing their outs.

button will often fold here so you are getting in with JJ with ALOT of dead money, cant be bad.
