    I am not really sure weather this is too much risk or a perfect opportunity to get ahead in the beginning of a SNG. Is it profitable on the long run to jump into situations like this or should i just let them go? Where is the line?

    depends alot on how dwb1976 got his chips.

    The call isn't too scary and the repop all in could easily be JJ, TT AQ, AK maybe even AJ. The call by wolverine shouldn't effect you too much because you really only care if your hand is better than dwb.

    With the amount of dead money in there and the range of hands he could have you're probably a slight favorite against the whole range so I don't think you can really fold.

    I know you called and he flipped up KK that's how it goes.

    wow...you got a limp reraiser allin and then a guy who overlimped and calls....I'm only worried about the first guy and he could have ak...aa or kk...or jj maybe. second guy probably has mid pair and wants to gamble so i'd call bc they limped and i hate limp reraisers.....what did they have?

    Damn, I didn't know people limp reraised with JJ... that's kinda scary imo.

    tough hand...idk wut i'd do. DWBs limp and than push is sooo scary, especially UTG....I prob call and lose to AA/KK/AK most of the time. It is suprising he had Jacks...shows how horrible players are.

    I understand why people shouldn't play jacks this way, but I will play them like this sometimes early in turbos or sng. Reason being a raise hardly ever works to thin the field like it should, so I'll just limp and try to hit a set, same reason to limp w AK imo.

    Hmm, tough one.

    Your raise could have been a little bit more given that it is early and there are 3 limpers.
    The limp shove screams AK or JJ, generally people would limp re-raise rather than shove w AA or KK, so i am not too worried about that guy.
    The shorty probably has any paint or Ace, so not worried about him and he may have some of dwb1976's outs.
    The big stack flatting the raise is a bit scary though, that is about the only thing that i would be worried about here - is he trapping or just a donk? How had he been playing to accumulate that stack?

    For the record i dont think i could have found the fold button here.
