    $4 180 man
    i have 10g's in chips. down to 17 players. blinds 300/600. im on the button, one player raise 3xbb, another calls, i have ak, i push all in. raiser folds, caller calls, shows pocket 9's. they both had double my stack. 9's held up. was it the right thing to do or just call and hope an a or k hits? i think it was right, just wondering what everyone esle thinks?

    I'd push just like you did. With 4k in there and you having 10k this is an auto shove for me with AK.

    I like this play personally. But im not sure how others will react. I play to win, with a raise and a call, I'd shove here hoping to take the pot down and worse case scenario a coinflip situation which is what occured. Not a bad play at all in my opinion. They both fold and you grab 1800+1800+300+600 so 4500, and basically double your stack.
