At the party poker $25 buy in games it is not uncommon to have between 4-6 people go all in on a single hand, creating at least 1 large stack (sometimes 2, due to side pots). Interestingly, 2 large stacks will often collide and go all in pre-flop specifically because 1 or more small stacks pushed the action. For example, a large stack may raise small, 4 or 5 callers, then a $25 stack will go all in, then the large stack will call or raise pot, and everyone else, including another large stack, will call all in because pot committed. (Actually, they probably go all in because they want to gamble and potentially quintiple up, and the fact they are actually getting correct odds due to all the dead money from the initial calls is of secondary concern)
