Default Pocket 10\'s - Push or Call?

Absolute Reward Points Tourney (read: freeroll)

9-handed

Blinds: T50 / T100

Hero (T2382) is dealt pocket 10's in SB

MP1 (T3910), MP3 (T3820) limp

CO (T290) raises all-in

Hero pushes all-in

MP1 folds, MP3 calls.

CO is so short stacked that I'm a definite favorite over his potential range of hands.

I'm fairly certain that neither of the MP players have an overpair; the table has been passive PF so a limp re-raise is unlikely to work.

Best I can figure, I'm probably a coin flip in this situation given the likely range of hands that MP1 and CO hold.

I'm basically wondering whether I should take a 50% shot at more than slightly doubling up relatively early in the tournament. There were 132 players left, top 18 paid.

Your push is standard to isolate. Unless one of the limpers was slowplaying a monster pair, you're a clear favorite over everyone in this pot.

Yeah, I forgot to mention that the main reason I pushed was in order to isolate the all-in CO. I figured the worst that would happen is that one of the limpers would call with overs.
