Hero?
BB had been known to get out of line a bit and had gotten to showdown with marginal hands in the past (had been seated with him since we were down to 2 tables). Hero had just doubled into the chip lead to burst the money bubble, and has a tight table image and would be viewed as playing conservatively though in reality I was just really card dead for most of final table to this point.
Do I call it off here with TPTK putting me in a goot spot to ship the tournament if I win the hand, or fold and try to ladder up a couple spots before i get it in?

Snap call. Tournaments are not won from playing conservatovely. Also you have the Ac
I thought so too and snap called. Turned out the BB decided to take a flop with K7o...
Any merit to my small open raise in this spot, or is it better to be just open shoving my whole range?
Cant be results orientated thay was just unlucky. I like a small open raise it induces s.b/b.b to shove worser aces which we have crushed which if we had jammedwould have folded. AK. Open jamming is also fine. Can go either way
Thanks, yes the goal of the smaller raise was hoping to get a shorter stack to shove at me. I don't think I would change the way I played it, I guess it's easy to second guess yourself when the correct play costs you a good chance of winning the tournament.
