The Four Way All in hand !!
We were drawn to table 36 as there was a lot of commotion going on, and it turns out there was a four-way all-in underway! We missed the exact action preflop, but here were the hands that were tabled:
Blinds are 30k / 60k, 10k
Philip Tse (utg): 260k
Kosta Papa (cutoff): 1.8million
Michel Poulin (button): 545k
Devon Bestard (big blind): Qc-Qd - 565k
Let's try to forget about results for the moment and I'll spell out my reasoning for calling.
UTG is really short and can be shipping with any two as he is about to be the BB and lose a quarter of his stack. The cut off re-raise all-in smells of isolating the short stack with a hand he doesn't want multi-way (7-7 to J-J, A-K, A-Q).
The only one that concerned me was the button call as he stands to move up the pay scale just by folding but he is short as well, with less than 9 BBs.
I have less than 9 BBs as well and if I win this hand, will have almost 2million in chips and over 30bbs getting 3:1 on a call and only getting the wrong price against Aces or Kings, I called.
Would love to hear other thoughts and opinions.

Interesting hand. I didn't think you'd be the 4th all in there. I had some idea the action was different.
Now as for the chipleaders agreeing to give more money to the lower places in the final table - not once, but twice - instead of utilizing ICM pressure...

Better with Vaseline tho.
