Question #1 If you are in a sitngo, and first hand your in the BB and get dealt AA everyone in front of you goes All-In. Do you call and hope to win, or fold and take your free second place. What if all but one other person pushes?
Question#2 If everyone goes all in on the first hand of a sitngo, one person wins the whole pot, Who gets second?
Question #3 Ring game with 5-6s all 9 people in front of you go all in. do you call? What if you have A-9s, what about 2-2?

depends, are you confident you can beat that large stack your going up against ??
if your good at heads up and coming back from such a large deficet, then by all means fold... if everyone went all in, there is a good chance someone else has AA, so maybe call and split the pot with the other winner

i imagine they split second place among the other losers, since everyone committed the same amount of chips.

fold.. too small of a chance of winning.

wrong. if you fold you AUTOMATICALLY win 2nd place. if 2nd place pays, it is a no-brainer to take this money at 0% risk. now you are freerolling for a shot at the top prize.

#2 split evenly
#1 go ahead and call because why the hell not. 30-40% to straight up win a sit-n-go, i'll take it. may be smarter to fold, and get a guaranteed second, but its just one sit-n-go, i'll take first please.
#3 fold. here, you're probably looking at like 5% to win, automatic second is definitely the way to go.
