Default Auto push?

Party Poker No-Limit $20+2 Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t300 (4 handed) converter

Hero (t1390)
Button (t2410)
SB (t3490)
BB (t710)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="CC3333">Hero raises to t1390 (All-In)</font>, Button folds, SB folds, BB calls t410 (All-In).


Is this an auto push or should I fold and hope for somebody else to take out the short stack?

My ICM calculations says that my $ return is pretty much equal if I push and get called by him or if everybody folds to him. Clearly the best case is if I fold and another stack raise him all-in.

It would take me 5 milliseconds to push that. Come on, what more do you want, AA?

Let me guess, he won, and you went on to bust out in 4th.

I think the best case would be if all three players called and they all had precisely AJ.

Next best case is you get called by a dominated ace.

Next best case is you steal the blinds.
