ITM, about 90 players left and payout until top10 are not really that great - 3x - 8x. I am one of the tourney shorties

Poker Stars, $10 + $1 NL Hold'em Tournament, 500/1,000 Blinds, 100 Ante, 9 Players

Hero (BB): 10,400
UTG: 40,684
UTG+1: 87,790
UTG+2: 120,321
MP1: 30,136
MP2: 23,199
CO: 65,640
BTN: 44,712
SB: 52,619

Pre-Flop: (2,400) 5♣ A♠ dealt to Hero (BB)
5 folds, CO raises to 2,750, BTN calls 2,750, SB folds, Hero raises to 10,300 and is All-In

CO is tightish, he has not openraised from CO yet ~50 hands
BU is pretty loose

Ok spot to shove with dead money from bu but very little fold equity here or hang on for another orbit?

don't like shoving a5 here. Rag acces perform really bad against their calling ranges. wait for a better spot and in the future push better suited aces or good offsuites like a/10+, pps, good suited connectors.
You don't have a lot of fe in that spot so your hand should perform good against their calling ranges!


Yea I also did not really like shoving over here as once he calls I am huge dog. But the blinds are really eating me away. If I fold I have 9300 left and 8700 after posting sb and ante. Maybe call and shove any flop would be better way to play this? Do I have enough chips left to fold and wait for better hand?
