just call with A10 when there are 3 players in the pot?
PokerStars tourney
very early stage
blinds:10/20
my stack: 1470
hand dealt to me:A10
A person in second position goes all in for 190
Next person calls (with something like 2500 in chips)
Next person calls (another big stack)
Folds
I have to act (and the button and the blinds have yet to act)- I think that I might have the better hand than the two big stacks since they just called, but it is tricky.
Just calling 190 to win 570 is good odds so calling seems reasonable. What about raising in that situation? The all in move would probably be a stupid idea, but if I were to raise, how much?
Now that I think about it, raising would be kind of reckless. I would really be overplaying a hand of such moderate strength.

AT does not play well in a multi way pot, either raise or fold. I prefer fold in this position with 2 chip leaders already in and others to act. If you raise $600 you are giving the first caller 3/1 to call, to get him to fold you need to raise all-in, do you want to be all-in with AT.
