Let's just say you are down to 10 players in the wsop ME and you pick up pocket aces and are last to act. You are 6th in chips and chip stacks 9 and 10 are at your table, both with under 10 BBs, and both jam then rejam in front of you. To call you would be putting about 55/60% of your stack at risk however if you win you go into the FT top 2 in chips. Do you call or fold here? IMO I would call because the risk reward is higher on the reward side. You are either going to go to atleast 2nd in chips or go down to 7th or 8th with still a virtual lock on making the FT but that's just me. What do you guys think?

Easy shove there. If you win you have a big stack at the final table and are already 8 handed. If you lose you are still in it and also at the final table or 10 handed with 1 stack with maybe 1 BB or less left (depending which one wins the hand).
Even 3 handed you are a favorite and chances are they both have a PP (would be awesome if they had the same PP), or more likely something like 1 PP and a hand like A-K or A-Q, although it could be even weaker since they are both short stacked. The first guy to shove could have almost anything, the 2nd guy must have some kind of solid hand.

Jumping right in. Even if you're up against two other pocket pairs, you will still win 2 out of 3 times here.

Anybody that wouldn't shove in that situation is probably to conservative to have made it to that point to begin with.

loool easy shove... against 2 players having AA you will have over 60% to win + you don't even loose your hole stack. if you win you get a great stack with which you can continue on the journey for the big bucks :D

If you have AA, you are just expecting this! Your opponent go all in for you call, or you go all in and your opponent call.
one way or another you wanna take all the chips you possible can! SOOF COURSE CALL

Your friend sounds like a fish. You should play against him. :p

This is an easy shove. You're winning this at least 2/3 of the time. If you do, you'll exit two players and have a good stack for the final table.

If chip stacks 8 and 10 are both under 10 BB and I get AA pre Flop, I will bet 10 BB as soon as I can. The other player with AA (you) may think about what to do but If you call it will be a tie. If you go All in, I will pay and then for sure it will be a tie.
Actually this doesnt make any sense you never are going to know for sure the cards of the other players in order to say 2 players have AA. :confused:
