Re: Is this push OK?
Well, this move will definitely be retired. You are right that there are much better spots and my stack gave me plenty of time.
I agree with betgo that moves are more likely to work in the higher buy-ins (unless of course there are tons of qualifiers at your table early on). I'll try not to discover some new way of blowing my stack in the Party Million Guaranteed this afternoon [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Is this push OK?
Is that such a bad thing if the BB calls? I figured I would most likely be in a race in that case and at the time I was OK with that.
One thing I have tried to pin down is when a race is good or not. I avoided them when first starting out and now I have probably gone a little too far the other way.

You had a read on the BB and the limpraise represents aces. If the BB had raised to 250, it would be a fine play. Just don't try this on an opponent who is pot committed.

Ok, so if I encounter the exact same situation but with a smaller raise from BB, should I be worried about the button or SB? I didn't worry about them at all in this hand, but should I? [/ QUOTE ] Normally not in the $200 tournament, although anything can happen when you push at limpers. Button's play with JJ was very fishy. Normally if someone limped with 99, they would have the sense to fold to 2 raises. The only thing you should be worried about from a good player is that the button could be trapping as the second limper with AA.
