784 pot
BB mucked and won 784 (412 net)

28/25/56 hands
Obviously he makes the right play here raising me when there is 2 more players with 10bb stacks, I try to take the pot or look at the flop cheaply, but as he raises I think I have to fold, I would put 1/5 of my stack If i call and Im out of position as well. AJs+ AQo+ 88+ I would shove here, but ATs seems too strong to fold and too weak to continue

shove pre (if you think villain will abuse a lot).

It's a yuk spot.
As played we can even shove after his raise, ATs is fairly amongst the top of our range.
We can call and see a flop, but will have to go with it when we hit off course.
We can fold and safely stay 2nd in chips with the others hitting the blinds now.

I really don't know what is best yet as played.

I think as played a shove should still be +EV after his 3-bet but it will for sure be a variance booster...

Problem with this that it could be ICM suicide with still 2 shorter stacks in it and he’s need to be capable to bluff 3bet a lot and fold even big hands like AK to make a shove profitable I think.
