Ok i have a very lag image was chip leader a few hands ago but ran AK into KK for a massive pot. The 2 calls im just looking at as dead money imo, maybe incorrectly.

    I've got to agree with Coxy.

    The 3-better has already put in more than 1/4 of their stack, so ought to be committed for the rest. The dead money in the pot would be a good addition to our stack if we could be confident that our shove would get through alot of the time but here we've got to think that's it's only very rarely going to get through. What's more likely is that we'll end up going to showdown against the 3-better. In that case, our hand is likely to be a race at best against JJ or lower, or is going to be a fairly considerable underdog.

    We can just fold, stay out of trouble here and maintain our 67BB stack, rather than take a gamble for at least 28BB. Who knows, sometimes one of the callers could be holding a massive hand. Not likely that they would call a 3-bet with AA, KK, or QQ but it does happen. (Sigh at my bustout from the SPT)

    I'd just fold and stay out of trouble. Peeling is tempting with 5/1 pot odds but you'll need to hit the flop pretty big as you're never going to see it checked behind you. I wouldn't be happy about getting it in on just an Ace-high or Queen-high flop.

    Fold for me.
