Default $5+1 Party Poker Multi Hand

Early in the Tourny. Level 2 I think. I just got off of duobling up with AA maybe 5 hands ago. My stack is 2200.

I'm in SB with 3 limpers previous. 10/20 blinds.
I look down and see AKs. I pop it for 100.
UTG+1 limper pops it for 200. His stack is now 1800ish.
Button goes all-in for 680.

So, 3 handed, with 2100 chips left, what should I do? Wait for a better time and not risk it?

Results in white.

<font color="white">I push to isolate short stack. UTG+1 calls his whole stack. He's rolls over QQ. Short stack rolls over JTo. I don't improve my AKs and I'm left with 70 chips. At this point, UTG+1 now is chip leader with near 5000 chips, with 850 people left in the tourny. </font>

It's fairly obvious that the button has no hand at all here, but I think you must fold to his push as UTG+1's hand looks like AA/KK.

Im not calling my chips after a limp reraise and a push. The limp reraise is usually AA/KK, the push could be a lower pocket pair. Im not interested in a coinflip at this stage and with the limp reraiser to act pushing is a dangerous play.

I would push because this is level 2 of a $5 MTT. Who knows what my opponents are playing.

i as well

i've been limp reraised from 99-qq. so it truly depends on the player what i think about the limp reraise. sometimes it's aa, sometimes it's kk.

but this is a 5+1 and you're lookin to build up.

it's close- but i push.

Not all $5 MTTs are dummies. There are decent ones too. BTW, dummies get good cards too.

I throw it away because I don't know what the player behind me is going to do, but my sense is that he has a hand. If he calls, I have to think I'm way behind, not just a coin flip.
