Is this a WTF moment with AK? This is the second hand of the tourney? I want to beleive that my AK has a chance but this has to be AA or KK shoving no? Or am I being too much of a nit?

Poker Stars $6.00+$0.50 No Limit Hold'em Tournament - t10/t20 Blinds - 9 players
The Official 2+2 Hand Converter Powered By DeucesCracked.com

CO: t1500 M = 50
BTN: t1540 M = 51.33
Hero (SB): t1480 M = 49.33
BB: t1500 M = 50
UTG: t1500 M = 50
UTG+1: t1500 M = 50
UTG+2: t1500 M = 50
MP1: t1500 M = 50
MP2: t1480 M = 49.33

Pre Flop: (t30) Hero is SB with K A
UTG calls t20, 1 fold, UTG+2 raises to t100, 2 folds, CO raises to t1500 all in, 1 fold, Hero?

I also fold...we have to assume that AK is flipping at best. If co doesn't have JJ+ utg+2 has it imo. Since you have a big edge over the field I don't see any good reason to get it in in such a marginal spot.

You don't think this spot could be a spazz attack by CO? UTG+2's range has me flipping at best so you think so a fold is in order? It is a mistake to fold AK pre most times in these low buy-in SNG's. So I am really tempted to call but not if I don't have any equity an if UTG+2's range has me on the negative side of a coin flip at best.

You call and see AQ or less most of the time with these low buy in.... What would you call with here? KK AA only?.......... Call, butjust in case register for another

Haha, agree. Great spot to build your stack early. Nobrainer imo.

I would let it go if CO is known to me as a solid regular/ nit. Otherwise folding is not option to me, because the average player on the 6 45s puts it in with much worse and against the average guy's range we ain't flipping.

this would be one of those hands where i momentarily spazz before clicking on call because i'm so excited.

and UTG+2 could literally be raising ATC this early.

I wouldn't blame you if you folded or called.

Not a bad spot to flip
