AKo

[tolbiny]

20+2 NL party, blinds still 10/15.
Utg pushes all in for T180, Mp (T1000) calls, folded to you in the BB with AKo and T800.
I figured it was a call and check out the flop situation or a push all in.
The benefits of the all in would be to push Mp out of the pot and get 2-1 on my AK wich is likely either a coin flip or a favorite over the type of hands that utg would push with here.
On the downside if mp just called with AA or KK then i just busted out in 10th...

I would move all-in. MP is likely a chip lead with 1000 already (loose?), so I would have to guess that he's calling with anything to eliminate the short stack. There's really no reason to believe that he's slowplaying a monster, so I'd take my chances.
