    Ace Jack Diamonds.ALL in preflop vs a chip leader?

    would you do this at the final table?

    Some question you gotta ask first:

    - What's your chip count?
    - How many players are left?
    - Where do you stand within them?
    - Where are the blinds?
    - When will they go up next?
    - How far are you from the next higher chip/lower chip count?
    - How many big blinds do you have left?
    - Are there any donkis/high activity on the table? (could wait and wait for a better spot)

    Generally, I wouldn't.

    A lot of the time I'm 3 betting/4 betting all in with AJ suited against an aggressive chip leader, especially if I'm short.

    It's not a hand you should call your stack off with every time, but what are you waiting for? You don't win donkaments sitting around waiting for AA.

    Basically, I agree with his post. We need a lot more information to give a good answer. If you're on a short stack (15 BBs or less) then in most cases you'll want to shove.

    Also, how much money is on the line. If its 50 cents (sorry fitty cents) i'd do it. I'd be all in on 29 off just for the hell of it. Just to mention it... donkamend is my new favorite word...

    Yeah, I guess really the biggest consideration is how many BBs you have left. If it's in the <20 range and you're up against the chip leader, it's often a race or you have the best hand. If you run into AQ-JJ-AA type hands, too bad.

    But at this point it doesn't matter, because OP stopped contributing to the thread.

    id do a 3 bb raise, and see whats up, depending on my position. its definately a trouble hand
    I went out 3rd with AJ os with 3 left in a 26$ with around 780 ppl in it. he had AQ os. Ever since then I fold AJ pretty easy.
    AQ has been taking out my AK alot lately... them basthards
