No, you are racing at best and also likely to be up against a dominating hand.

Fold and wait for a better spot.

Ok, dont normal do these, but got to keep learning, but avoid as faer of showing myslef up!. Lol.

Mrs mugger is under he gun (if i read correctly) and with 20ish m"s isn"t overly short, with 2 short stacks before his stack.   So he isn"t in any rush to push.   And as you state 9th money goes up alot.  So I defo put him on more than AT.

Jork, in 3 hands will be losing more than 10% of his stack, so a wider range, but I"d fold based on Mrs Muggers all in.

call 1 all in FTW
fold to 2 all ins to ladder. guy calling the shove may be doing this with a weaker hand than yours as he is desperate, but the combined power of the two hands leaves you favourite to lose. fold here

I will close this one off ... I folded pretty easily ... but I wasn"t too pleased when I saw their hole cards.

Mrs Mugger 99
Jork 99

Flop ATx rainbow - both dead on the flop!

OMG!

Amusingly I didn"t even make it one place up the ladder when I rammed 77 into 66 ... and lost to a 6 on the river!

You still made the right fold IMO

your probably up against a pocket pair and a strong ace that out kicks you so unless you hit 2 pair on the flop your looking to be drawing dead.  With the buy in I don"t think your playing donkament opponens at this stage of the game that will call with any weak ace to an already all in

as previously said if call one all in on my bb with a high ace but not 2 all in
