Bubble push

I'm pushing into the big stack, but it seems like the blinds are worth it and I've probably got the best hand anyway. Thoughts?

Its a good push, you can't fold and you can't raise without being crippled when the A doesn't flop and you have to make a decision to check/fold or go AI with the High card. Gamble, hope for the blinds and wish for a double-up.

I pushed all in with AA UTG with 7x BB, got called by 3 people, and someone made a set on me...Should i have just folded?

Clear fold...what a fish move.

Seriously though, I hate it when I raise with my AA late in the tourney and it gets folded around and I just get blinds. I'd rather gamble with the best hand! Its not my style to limp and I just figured they'd KNOW I had AA or KK if I tried limping that late.

har har. the issue isn't that i lost, its that i pushed into a huge loose chipleader that might have called with a whole lot of hands. Maybe I don't want a 60/40 for my tournament life? I think it was a clear good push, but its significantly different from "fold AA preflop here?" threads.

If the guy is loose all the more i want to push this into him especially if he's gonna call with A(2-9) or T(J-K). Easy double ups are always nice
