I see no reason to limp AT, because if I'm going broke in a Axx flop, the hand should be good enough to push pre-flop as well.

I would like to know if there are many differences of raise or push here let's say, AK or QQ+.
I think is better push AK but raise QQ+ (so the BB can shove).

Poker Stars $1.32+$0.18 No Limit Hold'em Tournament - t75/t150 Blinds - 6 players

CO: t2865 19.10 BBs
Hero (BTN): t2900 19.33 BBs
SB: t105 0.70 BBs
BB: t1545 10.30 BBs
UTG: t1350 9 BBs
MP: t4735 31.57 BBs

Pre Flop: (t225) Hero is BTN with T♠ A♦
UTG calls t150, 2 folds, Hero calls t150, SB calls t30 all in, BB raises to t1545 all in, UTG calls t1200 all in, 1 fold

Flop: (t2955) K♥ T♥ 8♦ (3 players - 3 are all in)

Turn: (t2955) 9♠ (3 players - 3 are all in)

River: (t2955) 4♥ (3 players - 3 are all in)

Hello rmslobato,

We are too deep to push here. Raise to ~400 chips is fine.
Raise with hands like QQ+ and AK is much better than a shove because we are going to extract more value from villains weaker hands.

Guys if you have any questions, do not hesitate to write in this thread by clicking the button or

Best regards,
