Default Re: AA...limp or raise late in a MTT on PP?

I think you did just the right thing in this situation. I know it's tough waiting and waiting for a hand to double up on and then get no action from it, but just remember that's it's better than letting one of the blinds catch trips on the flop with J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Winning 900 chips is better than losing more to a very weak hand. I like the minimum raise here and it's exactly how I would play it since it gives one of the other short stacks the opportunity to go for the 2100 chips in the middle with hands such as J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] or K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Unless the table has been raising and reraising every hand pre-flop and you can count on someone doing it this hand, you can't afford to risk a limp.
