So short stack shoves.  I put him on AK, AQ, possibly even AJ or A10 suited or any pocket pair.  I make a standard call in the sb with AK for a flip.  Then the big blind come over me.

Im priced in with any hand he has apart from AA or KK.  Even AK is a split.  I couldnt put him on AA or KK at the time and was forced to call as there was 54k in the pot and it was 22k to call.

Can I get away from this after ive made my call in the sb?  The BB wasn't playing massively tight and IMO he could have easily had AK, QQ or even JJ.

Just a cooler?

    don`t think I get away but I just re shove allin from sb make life easier in future. 

    when u just call then bb shoves you know they are going to be really strong but may level myself that hes only shoving cause I only flatted and he thinks I can fold now that he shows great strength lol and also iso shorty and pick up the dead money from myself.

    but I ain`t great mtt player prob best to wait for  advice from people like rocks573,mattbates,tommyd and other mtt grinders that win consistantly.

    Hi G

    30 bb's...plenty of wiggle room but i feel you should rer all-in pre otherwise bb can call with a less premium hand and even try to squeeze you out. Unfortunately you had drawn the short straw but once involved theres no way back in my opinion. Defo rer ai pre flop though as you dont want a three way pot seeing the flop. Just one of those things...woulda been nice if your straight had come in eh?
    PS I dont look at other opinions before writing so apologies if its similar to anyone(mind that would add greater weight, i suppose!)
