In first case for me best way was fold, because you had no position and it`s turbo MTT. But you saw style of game of your opponents and I`m sure that your actions were based on this. In any case success is never blamed)

Second is right play in general. Mini-reraise more often means very strong hands: AK, JJ+, against which you lose or split. But if you would have had some stats on 3bet-er about his aggression, you could sometimes call or 4bet.

Both hands you played terrible :D . Q10 is easy fold in that stage of tournament and position. Limping with Q10 UTG you must to know that players under you have 10-20bbs , they can easy shove. You folded AK after 1 player shove 5BBS and other just called , but with Q10 called 3 people all ins. I think you dont know what you doing :D.
About AK hand. Here player shoves 5BBs and other just calls with 25bbs , that means that player who calls in best way can have A10-AQ or small pairs. So AK here is perfect hand to do re-shove him and have big lead or flip.

With this card, I was ready to answer all-in player number 8, but I'm not ready to put all the chips. After I saw all the players who opened, I thought that a possible reward justifies the risk

I have doubled before that. I had a clear certainty that even if my Ak is preflop higher anyway, I will lose this hand

If you want to win something in tournaments you must to do your best and win chips. In that spot was perfect way to do this. Would you fold AA if you know that you have chance to loose ?

You are definitely mistaken, but my English is not so good as to explain it to you

In first hand you shouldn't be limping Q10o but as played it's an easy call in bounty builder. Second hand is an easy shove for you with AK.

First case: Good decision. This is a bounty and the guys are short. Second is a must call as well. In those bounty games AK is very strong hand, you may beat two pocket pairs at once.

we can only call the first hand with Q10 if the player with 3k stack didnt enter the pot, since he did then we need to fold.

with AK im over shoving you have them out stacked and they cream big Ax

At first case the hand is a fold pre flop but since you limped and you needed only 2834 chips to call in order to win such a big pot and all these bounties you have the odds to call.

In the second hand I believe is a call but ok if you didn't want to flip with two more opponents in the pot and 3 more to act behind you, it is ok for me. But the vast majority of the players re iso in this spots like this!

No matter, that was a bad play :) I think all will agree with me.

I don`t agree with you, because you have no information about players at this tables and your conclusions are very prejudiced:)

1st boom player you are 20 bb deep i would fold q10 early position but you called i dont blam you for overcalling 2500 more to win the whole pot with 3 bountys up for grabs , bounty tourneys can be not standard play

as of the second boom ak i would only fold if my hud said he was supper tight even if you get it in vs two underpairs you will still win the pot slightly more then 1/3 the time , not to mention the times they have aq aj a10 hands +ev spot 9/10 times , just go with it , theres a reason why that is a top 10 hand out of 169 combos of hands

Thank you all. Got a lot of information for thought. Usually with Ak I would answer, but that situation was not ordinary
