    easy fold imo, personally i almost never play A10 because there are just too many places you can get in trouble, and especially in a raised pot, the only Ace hands you can be are Ax, and your chances of flopping top pair with just the 10 aren't that high.. not to mention the chance someone has a high pck pair

    Couple things beav forgot to mention, there were only like 21-23 players out of 1500 or so left, and the table was kinda weird. Not a lot of big hands were showing and Lotsa stealing. I saw this hand and thought you folded this correctly.

    UTG limp, I fold this to the reraise.

    But I don't think would have raised this PF anyways. I'm feraing a limp/push from UTG, they seem to do that at this level. Take the cheap flop. Couple oif reasons I like limping here. 1) AT can be dominated and we dont want o get into a PF raising war (as we did) with a marginal hand. 2) Two limpers increases the chance that the pot will stay unraised. Raising loses serious EV when the chances of eveybody folding PF is severly reduced due to a few limpers. 3) If somebody does raise, then you get to eveluate their hand plus UTG's a littel better without commiting monda chips to the pot.
    Marm is back, maybe. Been off for 3 years. Rusty as Hell.

    In the nether world at the end of big MTTs the pf raise with a limper is risky but reasonable if you are perceived as a tighty.

    But I think it must be a fold to the reraise.

    I did fold, I was thinking AQ, but I also thought there was a good chance he had middle pockets or KQ KJ.

    Final table was getting in site, I think there were still 30 left at this time. Final table pay out was pretty good, so I was trying to get ready for it, unfortunatly, I wasn't able to keep up with the blinds and antes after a great run in th middle of the tournament went from 2.8k to about 40k in the second hour.

    There was a lot of raising, so it was hard to see a cheap flop.

    What is the deal with limp/calling all in with AQ anyway? That is what busted me on a boneheaded steal 5 players from the final table.
