    Bodog 100K 109.00 900 entrants down to around 300. avg stack 7600. 150/300 w/25 ante UTG+1(10K) opens to 800., Dyzalot(8400) calls from MP2, I(7900) call on the button w/99, blinds fold. 3400ish - FLOP 5s 3s 8c UTG+1 checks, Dyzalot open shoves for like 7K into the 3400.00 pot. wtf????? Dyzalot is a very aggro excellent tourney player. Should I have repopped preflop? This hand really confused me and when i get confused I usually call and lose, but I thought about this for a while before I actually clicked one of the buttons. Thoughts?

    Pretty sure I had JJ here. I had decided to call preflop and play the pot on any safe looking flop. I was fairly sure I was ahead here and didn't want to give an opportunity to the original raiser to check-raise all-in with something like AsKs or you the chance to raise me off the pot with something like a straight and flush draw by making a normal bet of about 2K. Since betting "pot" would have committed me anyways I decided to just shove and give everyone the poorest odds possible to call with a draw. Good laydown.

    Oops, sorry. I wasn't trying to be sarcastic. I forgot you called that bet. It was a tough spot for you and I can see how it would look like I have a draw there. However, I'll almost never call preflop with a big ace with the stack I had at the time and where the blinds were at.
