    think you can only make call with QQ, KK or AA even AK suited is not good enough in my opinion.

    To early for me especially when you,ve 3 bet and get shoved on . You,ve still over 40 big blinds . Plenty of time to find a better spot, unless you had more of a read on opponent and he,s been doing this before with a wide range, then maybe i would take the risk

    Think this has to be a fold. When you get to this stage of tournaments though you generally want to be raising smaller pre flop.

    I think that your raise size is fine, given that there has been a limp in front of you. If it was an unopened pot we should open for between 2x and 2.5x.

    As for the shove, well we can't really call this and expect to be ahead. Most of the time, people will not shove with 88 or worse so we're hoping to face two overcards, which we're racing against, but could just as easily be up against an overpair which would mean we're a 4/1 underdog. Calling here really would be a gamble.

    The fact is that, with 55.5BB back, we're really deep-stacked. We don't need to be gambling.

    readless its a fold. Prob open a little less pre but w/e

    Yep even with limp raise is too much, 1200 is fine as your standard should be minraise at this stage plus 1 bb for limper (well at least that's what I do lol) as you should be raising a LOT not just with good hands, trying to steal blinds at every opportunity.

    As played easy fold as 55bbs deep is too deep to take a possible flip here imo.
