MP1 bets 20

Hero ???

Not quite sure what to do here. See another card for about 1:3 pot odds? LP has already reraised twice since this hand began.

You should be re-raising pre-flop, probably to 300. You've got a strong hand, but it's out of position, and you want to be the aggressor. Given your current spot, however, I'd just fold. There will be much, much better spots to get your money in. The $30 20-person tournies on Pacific are a donkfest, I can only imagine what the $2 looks like.

Pretty standard fold. You don't beat anything now. AK high 3handed is never good.

RESULTS
 

Hero folded the flop.

MP1 showed A6s
MP2 showed TT and took the pot down.

Re: 20person 2.50 ... AK OOP
 

Is the reraise to 300 reasonable, given that we only start with T800 chips?

Yeah, you didn't post stack sizes. You can just push if you want to, expect to get called by all kinds of garbage.
