Playing on ACR last night in the $7500gtd. Effective stacks are about 7k Blinds are 50/100 25 ante.
UTG (10k) opens 2x G+1 (7k) calls MP (6k) Calls and BTN (5k) re raises to $1000
Im in the sb (7k) with AKo and tank fold. As soon as I did it I felt like I made missed a perfect opportunity to squeeze.
My reasoning was; UTG has been showing down monsters and G+1 was a rock. And I have 0 information on the BTN. I hate playing out of the SB. My only move was a shove and I don't like risking my tourney that early on. Tell me what you think

lol no need to race with 70BB, and you would either be in for a coin toss, or you was dominated, not to mention you don't have a clue what the other players would do, might aswell wait for a better shot

Think it was a good lay down, didnt had enough info on the players and being that it was so early in the tournament i wouldnt cry it down to much. Considering the amount of players in the hand your AKo wouldve lose some equity so not the worse fold ever :)

specific tutorial on hold'em no, there has to be instinct at this point in the game. No wonder they say if you sure go all-in , no , do fold

If you're sure that UTG has a monster, then a fold is fine. A cold 4 is standard, I suspect G+1 and MP will fold. I'd probably fold if UTG makes a move, and will probably have a tough decision if BTN shoves.

fold is fine, but if you play 6-7 or 10 tournaments, shove is fine also :D

I think you must call here. And fold flop on bad board. Yes, can got QQ, KK or AA, But only vs AA you have a very bad chance. You have a good stack for play call and fold 10bb here

I agree, a call to hopefully see a flop. This might not be the best play, it would suck to see a 4 bet jam from UTG but I dont know if I would fold just to a 3 bet unless I knew UTG was only opening AA or KK.

Yeap I could find the fold easily there. No need for flips early in the tournament.Since you already had some reads on the UTG and BTN player! I would shove with KK,AA and maybe with QQ. I don't like at all the early stages coinflips!Good to be a nit sometimes!

It's definitely not the worst fold ever, but shoving there also isn't terrible.
