Situation just recently and I wanted to check to see if my thinking in MTTs (still new) was correct or if I still need work:
Situation:
micro stake ($2.25, gotta start somewhere.. if you can't beat these.. etc...)MTT.. I have an average stack of around $5400. The antes have just kicked in and I'm on the SB at $120/$240.
Folds to a MP stack with $20,000 who opens with a min bet to $480.
Folds to me with AKs.
My thoughts: He can't be that strong as there are a few big stacks on his left who could easily call with some spec hands in that spot getting a good price.
My AK is probably ahead of his min bet range (Small PPs, Axs, SC, plain old fashioned steal). He has min bet a couple of times before and likes to push his stack around on the flop/turn.
I decide to shove all in thinking my stack represents 1/4 his stack. He may dump his hand (not wanting to call off in a bad spot) or will only call with a solid PP 99+, in which case I'm flipping for all my chips V chance to double up and sit comfortably.
Is this the right thinking?
