Doesn't matter. You're pot committed whatever you do. Might as well push now and save time.

You still have a stack to work with, I wouldn't go broke here, chances are you'll have some opportunites to steal blinds/pots I'd wait for a better opportunity.

Edit: If you are going to play the hand I'd re-raise, but not all in, just for information, lots of times people min-raise with great hands thinking that it is somehow concealing their strength, if you re-raise and get called/reraised you can pretty much assume you're beaten and only play with a great flop if he calls, and even though you put some chips in the pot you wouldn't go broke and still have somewhat of a stack to work with.

The original raiser has ~4BBs? This doesn't make any sense at all. With Ace high, even calling already pot commits you.

Sorry, read that as 1425 for Primo, with ace high I would put him all in here.

Hi. I just finished a 22 hours poker marathon...could not stop riding the heater. Maybe I am missing something here? I would just call, see the flop, and decide what to do from there. Have a nice day!
