ffs,
this is so ****** unreal
its the CO and the motherfcking button. ffs

We crush w/e CO's range which even for a random is like any ****** suited K and broadways and if the BTN even has half of a ****** brain they are calling any pair KQo+ and like A5o+. And your mucking AK? ffs this is so ridiculous.
everyone saying "snap muck" you all can gfy. unreal how many ridiculous threads there are about folding AK w/ less than 20BBs.

the abstract seeing you seem to be getting pretty worked up about this yet you miss the fact the SB has called as well

now I never fold here but if you are going to be so aggressive in your stance at least try and get the action right

We're f-ing scared here if 50,000 stacks are shipping left and right. But we're getting micro ships, which probably means (depending how the table is playing) that they are relatively wide in most of these spots. Also remember AK is probably the 3rd best hand we can have in these huge pots so take the value and opportunity to increase your stack to a comfortable level and give you and edge to take this tournament down.

Way too nitty of a fold buddy.

I agree +1.

Throw ICM out the window in these extreme spots with lots of value.

You're going to see some of these tards calling with Q9s here, this is a ship. Its a $6, they see paint and that is the nuts for them. The sole exception would be if this were the bubble in some massive tournament. Even then I think ICM is ******ed because there is too much value lost.

2 co wins & you beat the button and take the side pot of 4500 .
3 button wins you go broke.

If you are beat here so be it.

If you get the side pot you are at square one.
+1

Best logic I've seen so far in this post. Why browbeat an honest question? OP asked because he wanted an answer, not abuse. If he thought it was an autoshove he wouldn't have posted the thread.

PS:OP any reads on the villains? That would help a lot...

Easy shove due to dead money + good equity (because you WILL get called by worse... so this shove is for value) + a tiny bt of FE = ++++cEV

Yeah it's only the money bubble and you have 0 FE against 2 people that cover you how could there possibly be ICM implications

I'm not saying it's a shove or not and I probably would shove in game but anyone posting itt without mentioning ICM should lurk more.
