    Default 4/180 -- fold AK preflop?

    UTG has been very aggressive, MP1 has been fairly tight. Average stack is ~4500, there are about 55 players left with the payouts starting at 18...

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Hero (t4025)
    SB (t6320)
    BB (t2417)
    UTG (t9230)
    UTG+1 (t3785)
    MP1 (t3915)
    MP2 (t8720)
    CO (t5440)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with A, K.

    Turn: (t8840) T (2 players, 1 all-in)

    Outcome: MP1 wins t8730. Hero wins t110.

    I like it. UTG is squeezed and folding, MP is committed.

    With fold equity, shove.

    Without, like in this case, fold, the guy has committed himself against an UTG raiser.

    Shove QQ+, fold all else. Maybe even consider folding QQ

    No need to be coinflipping at this stage.
