We are down to the final 9 in quick fashion. I am the short stack with 2400 and blinds are still relatively low at 25/50.
A new table and have no reads on the players from the other table.
I am on the Button with AKs
UTG+1 Raised to 200 (4xBB), MP calls, checked to me.
I raised all in here. I know I am not in all in or fold mode but wanted to pickup the 475 already in the pot and had a good hand if I did get called.
Folded to the original bettor and he calls my all in and has me covered. Turns over KK.
I didn't improve and busted out in 9th position.
Now was my play correct?
Is calling and folding on the flop if it misses a better play?
Is calling and pushing on the flop ANY flop a better move?
Is a smaller reraise more appropriate?
I have discussed this at length with a friend who thinks all in with AKs in raised pot is a mistake but I dissagree. Any other opinions?
Thanks,
Hotrod
