Normally when people do this, they are massive AA, or they have some kind of small pp and originally planned to try and hit a set cheap but when it got raised they thought i'll just push and hope i'm racing ak or that everyone will fold thinking i have AA.
So it's going to be one of those way ahead or way behind situations, it's down to you and what type of tourney it is, are you trying to get a big stack early and willing to take a chance? Have you paid a bit to enter and want to give it a real go, is it a rebuy or a freezeout?
answer these questions and your choice should become clear.

lay it down dont risk it, he is happy to shove two opponents here and if you call there is no guarantee that the player behind isnt calling. You have to put him on high pocket pair the way he limped then shoved screams aces so just lay it down.

I dont call I either fold or jam I dont want mum coming along with a middling hand or even worse coming over top of me. Im quite happy to put howdy on any pocket pair and was originally looking for a cheap flop.

I think he stealing tbh who in there right mind would limp in with aces i think you have him dominated and as for the shove he is trying to steal the chips imo...

its a pretty standard play to limp and shove the first raise with aces in a DYM.
You call that you lose 90% of the time! You want to go three way with pocket tens when your more than likely up against 4 over cards!!! INSANE

tbh i would be hoping the limp shove would be from 66,77,88 somethink like that, but i would be more woried about the caller behind..

Batkin88

why would he limp shove with 66 77 88 or anything lower than AK AA KK QQ or maybe JJ? Into two callers he has to have a very good hand he knows he is taking atleats one along with him.
And yes the caller behind is exactly why u should fold beacause TT 3 way is not good lol
What actually happened??

(Its not a good idea to call here either its shove or fold, you call and player behind shoves your under pressure again)

If this was a £5 DYM, with your chip stack in this position I fold even though if I call and lose I still have close to 4k in chips.  With the blinds being so small, he has no reason to bluff  with e.g. AK or smaller pocket pair against you (the chip leader) unless he has AA, KK, QQ, JJ or maybe AK/AQ at worst.  He's only likely to shove with an inferior hand to a player with a similar size or lower chip stack or if the blinds are a lot higher.  Remember, you are not playing to win, you are playing to finish in the top 3 so in summary, pick a better spot to get the chips in or let the small stacks fight it out with each other.  I think you made the correct play.
