Raiser makes very loose raises and calls resteals extremely lightly (yes, including plenty of worse Aces). Cold caller is Deuce2high. I'm pretty sure I'm getting called very often, but is there enough dead money?

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t800 with t75 antes (8 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t12090)
UTG+1 (t25128)
MP1 (t16220)
MP2 (t57218)
CO (t40650)
Button (t44782)
Hero (t14995)
BB (t27504)

Preflop: Hero is in SB with A

UTG folds, UTG+1 folds, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, CO raises to t2400, Button calls t2400, Hero raises to t14920 (All-in)?

I think the squeeze might have gotten so over used in the 100r that its now under used.

They'll never see it coming.

Mandatory I think. Though I'm torn as to what button is flatting with given stack size of button and opener, but its probably wide enough.

50bbs is a huge stack at 400/800 in this tourney. button is flatting a lot of hands. all low pairs, suited connectors etc

edit: also one other thing. not trying to be a nit but this isnt really a squeeze its a value shove but obviously it looks like a squeeze. but it is a great spot for an actual squeeze with weaker hands
