AK nearing the bubble in a satellite

341 entries, about 40 players left, top 9 get a $1,050 seat in the Stars WCOOP event #8.

Villian has been pretty solid.

Does anyone consider folding this here?

Call. You have a below average stack and 3/4 of the field needs to be eliminated. You only have 16xBB, so you have to go with AK.

Bump

Anyone else?

Is this that clear of a call?

If you wer closer to the bubble it'd be an auto-fold, but I think you still have lots of poker to play and not a big enough stack to fold here. Call.

It doesnt look good in your situation. Villan probabbly has a solid hand here, QQ or better.....I cant see him risking a big loss in an entry tourney at this stage. Regardless you need to put your chips in and hope to double through.
