Live tourney - Hand 2

[LeeG]

Live $70BI Tourney, down to 13. 10 get paid.
Blinds 2000/4000 with 200 ante.

I have about 45K in chips. There are a few short stacks that have just been doing AI preflop and staying alive, but there are several players with approximately the same chip stack I do.

Action folds to me in SB and I complete with A 7 . BB has about 30K in chips and checks.

Flop: A 4 9
I check hoping to trap, but he checks behind.

Turn 7
I bet 10K
BB pushes AI.

Hero?

Preflop is bad, raise or fold.

As played this is standard call, especially since we can't put him on any range.

with BB sitting with 7.5BBish just shove PF.
As played, we're only losing to A9 or sets, if we fold we sit with 7.5BB and will be in a grave situation.

Well, as it turned out, BB had pocket aces. Other than folding preflop, which is hard to do with an ace in BvB with blinds that big.
