This was quite a tough spot for me. Having the second largest stack and getting close to bubble, an all-in from a fish (48/30) from utg+1... If the large stack hadn't called there, I certainly would have. But with these two already in the hand, I decided not to join..

Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

Play hand

$50/$100 No-Limit Hold'em (5 handed)

Known players:
[tg]BB$830.00:///////;MP3$1245.00:///////;CO$6020.00:///////;BU (Hero)$3210.00:///////;SB$2195.00:///////;[/tg]

Preflop: Hero is BU with A:d, K:h.
MP3 raises to $1,245.00(All-In), CO calls $1,245.00, 3 folds, 2 folds, BB folds.

Flop: ($2640) T:d, 9:s, 8:c (2 players)

Turn: ($2640) 5:c (2 players)

River: ($2640) 7:d (2 players)

Final Pot: $2640.

Spoiler

MP3 shows 9:h 9:c
CO shows A:h 5:d

As it turns out, I'm quite glad I gave up. Should I've done something differently?

When you do ICM training those spots are usually either KK+ or AA so I think it's a nice fold.

with no caller I would push to isolate. but with the big stack caller ahead, I'm folding here as well.

Easy fold against two players already did enter the pot.Also it is notable
that the big stack did not try to isolate, but just called, appears that he is looking for some action...

Without reads it's a standard KK+ spot. QQ+ if you thought A5o was well within his range to do this move here..
