dont expect anything brilliant to come of this, just really judging what the consensus is.

With 14BBs left..probably push.

Bleh, first thought is that you're on the bad side of a race here with at least 1 dead out. Because I'm a fish though, I'd probably push anyways.

I say fold, I think youre better off building by picking good spots to steal. Hard to imagine this is better than a race, I saw fold here Exit. Although some more information about how late it is would also help.

I'm weak/tight so I fold. AK in multiway pots is not fun, since someone has you beat with a pp, and someone else is counterfeiting you with AQ or worse, AKs.

14BB = push every time.

I have to make this read based upon the player and what I saw him play...I assume by these limits we're way into the money at this point...

IF he reraises a lot and shows A9 or 77, it's instapush for me - all in - 3rd best starting hand - and put faith in Pokerstars to put down a 3 outer since he probably has KK - LOL.

Unless I read him as meta tight, I'm pushing....- like a previous poster said - YOu've got 9K of your 41K in there - almost 22% of your stack - I feel like at one point I gotta make a stand...you're gonna be hurting if you don't - and I think you could easily be ahead here a lot depending on how the player plays.

But let me guess, this was a micro tourney where you were multitabling and didn't have a good read - - [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] - I'd say you're short stacked enough and far enough along where it's time to win a coinflip or two. And I've seen SO many times where they have AJ, AT, or KQ that I feel a repush is profitable here...

Exit,
Easy push here imho. You are at 14bbs are people have mentioned, UTG is likely out as he is a big stack and could be playing anything (even UTG) so you are likely racing with t12000 dead in the pot. Unless you have a super tight read on UTG or UTG+1 I push everytime here.

Push or fold. Depends on:

1. Do you want final 3? Fold

2. What have these guys been playing?

3. That's pretty much it.

Add factors of 1-3 together and make your decision.
