Thanks Owen! Another great addition to the series. It will be good if we can see the BBs of the opponents & the current blind level on screen. Cheers!

The pace is great! Tough folds pre-flop would be great to see, Thanks again for another great video in the series.

Only reason that I folded is if I call and lose - I am bust. On the other hand, if i fold I will have 50bbs to play with. Assuming I have an edge on the field, I don't want to end my tournament life. Thanks for the time in providing your thoughts. Appreciated

Thanks man. Exactly my thoughts. The night was too young to bust out. folded my hand to pick a better spot. Definitely not a great feeling

Bit of context: This is a live tournament - regular locals play with a field size of around 125. Freezout structure with no-rebuys starting at 150 BBs. People usually play very tight except a few maniacs who try to capitalise on this. We were on level 4 or 5 where antes just kicked in. Everyone is very deep (70BBs +). 10 players in the table.
Hand: I was in LJ position with AQo. UTG+1 and UTG+3 player limped and I raised to 4 BBs. Got a call from Cut-off, Small Blind, Open limper and the limper behind.
Flop comes A,A,T (rainbow).
Everybody checks to me. I bet half pot. Cut-off folds, Small Blind folds. Open limper just calls and the limper behind folds. We go heads-up.
The turn comes 5d. The open limper just goes all-in quickly. Should I call or fold?
It didn't seem like the card mattered to the villain and felt like he decided it on the flop. I still have around 50BBs left in my stack. I didn't want to risk my entire stack. And usually people go for full value in these tournaments when they have it and don't bluff too much. So, i talked myself into folding showing the Ace(hoping he would show his hole cards). Unfortunately he mucked and took a large pot. I didn't have any read on this player as it was a new table that I moved onto. And for the next 30 hands, he played very tight. Nothing too loose.
My question is what hand ranges could he be donking for the entire stack? Why not let me bet the turn and then go all-in? And is this a tight fold? should i be calling in this spot?

Great video again. Good to see the thinking behind the fold. Please include them (atleast those that are not straightforward like the A9 hand). Thanks again

I personally would fold this situation 100% of the time. 40bb is too much to gamble with AK.
AA,KK,QQ - definite call
JJ,TT - might call sometimes depending on the player
AKs - still a fold for me
It was very interesting for me to see how you quantified the loss in terms of $$$ value. I will be grateful if you can expand on this in its own video or in any of your future videos and teach us how to do it.
