MP plays 26/19. I assumed that after btn flatted the open there was enough dead money in the pot to jam this hand profitably. but I wasn't sure. I thought that often enough MPs range will have suited broadways and small pairs but almost never worse Ax, unless it's A9s/or maybe A8s.
I was going to just flat if btn didn't call
I still feel like this play is little loose

This is a good resteal. MP is raising into 4 players so is late position and AT is too strong to pass up. Your options are to shove or to fold nothing inbetween. You ran into the top of his range no big deal. Nh.
