its midway through a 22 dollar tourny on party. im big stack at table with around 5000. blinds are 50-100. next largest is around 3000.
I receive AKo in utg+1 and raise to about 600. folded around to next largest stack, who reraises 1000. what do i do here? call the raise and hope i hit, but then if i don't muck, or fold, or reraise all in. thanks for any help. |

Are you playing to nickel and dime or win?

well, i think at this point more to nickel and dime, which is why i folded, i guess if thats the main consideration here then its correct to fold. but if you are going to fold AK often i don't think you would make it that far either?

I would re-raise all-in pre flop. Obviously, if he has aces or kings you are in big trouble, but the chances of that are pretty small since you already hold one of each. Plus you get to put him on a decision for all of his chips and you ensure that your bigslick will see all five cards and have a chance to catch. Even if you lose, your stack size in relation to the blinds is decent enough to recover.

i certainly wouldnt reraise allin here... while there's a chance you have your opponent dominated w/ a,q or something, he most probably has a pocket pair, giving you a coin flip at best. why risk half ur stack on a coinflip when you're not even in the money yet? call and see the flop. if it helps, play accordingly. if not, fold.

if you're gonna lay down to a re-raise why not only raise it up to $400? raising to $600 is only going to cost you $200 more if you fold, and it won't do anything else.

in fact, raising 6x BB may be seen as an overbet and your opponent could sense weakness because of it. if you keep it to a standard 3x or 4x raise he won't know what to do.
