I've seen a lot worse than this, like someone folding for 85 more into a 2400 pot for example. I went all-in for 85 chips on the river with rags and took it down. Sweet.

I can top it. In fact, mine's not even in the same galaxy...

Your hand has a 0% chance of winning, essentially, but a naked A probably has a nontrivial chance of splitting the pot, which is pretty attractive for 10 chips. On the other hand, the big stacks might want to keep shorty breathing for ease of stealing from medium stacks, and perhaps there are image concerns as well about showing down a dog of a hand here. So I understand some of these folds, but it does seem surprising to me that some of the shorter stacks, say, don't throw chips at this. Were they afraid of action behind them?
