Artificially large odds
This is more of an academic quesiton than a real poker question, because the issue described below is very rare, so in the long-term it hardly matters at all what you do here. Still interested to know how to play this though.
I was just playing poker on pokerstars and they dealt out an anniversary hand (7709000000). This creates special circumstances where the winner of the hand gets $1000 (plus the pot) and everyone else that was dealt in at the table gets $400.
Anyway, when the hand was dealt, an announcement was made to all tables, and it said which table was the lucky winner. I went to that table and it turned out to be a 1/2 NL table.
So, the question is, given these circumstances (with no reads), and assuming you have an ~average stack of $150, if it is folded or limped to you, is your correct action to always push all-in regardless of your hole cards or position?
What if it is raised to you...for the sake of argument, assume someone who acts before you, also with an average stack, pushes all-in. Is it always correct to call with any two in any position?
