Re: Time to push AK?
i don't have much experience in big field tournament play but 30 minutes into it, without having invested too much in this pot already i dont' think you need to risk your stack on a coinflip and can fold.
your best case scenerio is if you're up against Ax, but there will be instances where you'll be crushed by AA and KK and coinflips with pairs. since you raised so big utg, the re-raiser could have you on something you want to back your stack with and pot commit you with a primo holding.
but if you are gonna play this hand i think you should push and see all 5 cards.
also, 5x the bb seems too big of an raise imo, but i don't really know how this really plays out in big tourneys.
