I was at a live tourament today with 9 people. I was comtemplating a all in reraise against with AJo. I had a read on the player. He hads like Ax Kx, Q9, and other crap. here's how it worked

Button on villian

Villan(2500)
Hero(1600)
Seat4

Dealt to hero (Ad Js)
Seat1 folds
Villian raises 300
Hero????

The other two stack sizes and payout structure are VITAL to know whether this is good, bad or whatever!

How did Villain raise to 300 at 100/200?

Well, anyway, that payout structure is plain weird. It seems to favour first much more than 3rd compared to the usual 0.5/0.3/0.2. Given that and your read it's probably an all-in situation.. I'll let someone else do the actual ICM though.

raising 300, i'm assuming he made it 500 to go. you'd be pushing back 1100 more - enough FE IMO to push it now, vs. calling/pushing a flop. too strong of a hand to consider anything else. with your read, i'd push it PF.
