Let’s say it’s first hand of a 9 max regular sit n go and AKo pushes all in what’s the right move?

My opinion

It depends on if your trying to win or just out for a casual tournament. Chips are nice and ace king wins 2 out of 13 times with five chances of hitting. So if you have ten ten prolly a bad move.

Hello friend AKo only loses to AA.
I don't think it's such a bad move, I've seen worse.
Betting everything before the flop is risky
poker and risky play only comes to a close or end who takes the most risks.:tomato::icon_thum

As always the answer is: it depends.

We need more info to answer the question. For now let's focus on three different things to keep it simple:

1. What is our position?
2. What position is Villain (the opponent)?
3. What are our stack sizes?

Every time we play a pot we want to take this into consideration. For all in spots in general: The later position Villain is, the wider we can call an all in. The shorter the stacks, the wider we can call an all in too.

Thanks! That’s what I needed to hear, perhaps rethink my PP play

Being excited about something never hurts haha. This just helps yourself to better analyse the spot and make the right decision :)

In general though, for a single table sit and go (starting stack 75bb on pokerstars usually): Stacking off with AK for 75bb is rarely a huuuge mistake in a vacuum. So no worries there.

how do you know that he has ak? i dont understand what are you asking , but it prettty much comes down to for how many bb are you playing and do you have any reads on the guy. generally stacking of with tt preflop in firsthand of sit and go is not good.

If you want to gamble, call- if you want to play it’s clear fold. There are to many hands that beat 10 10

I don't think I would call an all-in with 10s, unless I know the villain. You are basically a coin flip to any two face cards, and way behind any over pair.

I know some players that will pounce at the beginning of certain tournaments hoping to double up. If they lose, they just rebuy and try again. They feel they need the early chip lead so they can attempt to dominate the table.

Best advice is to set a strategy pre-tourney and stick with it.

I prefer AK of course depending on the position, but my opinion is that AK is better than 10 10.
