Here's my finish in the last 10+1 I played in this afternoon.

PokerStars Tournament #7715065, No Limit Hold'em
Buy-In: $10.00/$1.00
721 players
Total Prize Pool: $7210.00
Tournament started - 2005/05/10 - 14:45:00 (ET)

Dear DaWiLdOnE,

You finished the tournament in 48th place.
A $18.02 award has been credited to your Real Money account.

You earned 77.93 tournament leader points in this tournament.

Problem is I called a guy going all in pF with 99 - A really loose player, and blinds were going up I was under average, and I called with AKo. Needless to say I'm out and he's in. gg.

I was kinda frustrated that I was out, but really I read him to have TT or under, so I called - my reasoning at this stage of the game and finishing 48th, should I have called his all in putting him on a PP?

Help me out guys! I wish I could display my PT stats but they haven't laoded yet.

Easy fold there I think with two all-in ahead of you. You're pretty shortstacked, but you wil have just hit the blinds, meaning you've got at least 8 chances for a better pushing hand. I'm not really criticizing you because I probably wouldn't have thought about it and done the same thing. The real problem is that you have to put at least one of them on a pair, and you can guess the other guy will have some of your outs.

I have to disagree with announced tilt here. I would almost never fold AK to an all in when I'm shortstacked.

the shortstack doesn't matter here, the side pot with the other player is the meat and potatoes

You will almost never be dominated, you always have a good chance at the pot unless your opponent has AA or KK and even KK isn't horrible

Steve, sorry but I disagree. You are correct that you are not going to be dominated. The problem is that you are making the call KNOWING that you are behind. You not only have to take out the guy you know has the PP, but the other guy as well. He is shortstacked, but he would have just hit the blinds. He has a number of hands that can provide him a better opportunity. Any pair he gets he can push, or if he is the first to raise with an AK or AQ. Calling with AKo is rarely a good move, and especially not in this situation. He has very minimal straight possibilities and almost no flush potential. He is calling knowing that he is already behind and there is a chance that he could be down to as few as 3 outs.

That's what I figured, I busted out 4 others with AKs/o PF. I put him on a PP no higher than 88 - He called with 33, 55, and QQ earlier in the touney. I pushed cause I needed to double up, I was quickly noticing unless I was stealing blinds occasionally that I wasn't going to be long for this tourney if I didn't call him.

Thanks for the input.

16K to win 24K+ to be up to 40K with those odds, and you would fold?

Yes, I think this warrants a fold. Maybe I'm wrong, but I'd like to see some others' inputs on this hand.

With less than 7 BB's, you have to go all in with AK here. Maybe, and I stress maybe, I fold here at a final table to get a possible bump, but I'd have to put a basic "retard" read on one of the two players having AX or maybe KQ and the other on a pair. The first guy to go all in could have anything, but the second guy DEFINITELY doesn't have Aces or Kings.

Most of the time, you're not dying here because of the side pot and that raise screams pair, Queens or lower, AQ, or AJ as this is a clear isloation raise and with this short stack, actually I'm definitely not folding at a final table with 7BB's. This is a good shot to win.

In your case, you have to call. You're nowhere near the end yet and a fold won't bump your winnings up enough to justify a fold at all. I have folded this situation in SnG's with 3 or 4 left because the amount of chips in play in relation to my stack isn't that high and I can still compete and Get a take.

You don't have enough to compete here if you fold and you have a great all in PF hand in your situation. You're looking to get back in the game. I like the call.
