Low stakes satellite facing 2 allins

Have I become just a meganit? What would you do here, readless- I was snapping the first guy ofc, but when someone else came over the top I know if I lose hand I'm back down in the mix again, whereas I'm pretty comfortable to most likely cruise into the seats with my stack. Is folding here just a terrible play? I think it might be. :(

    I think a bit more info is necessary here, i.e how many left and many get seats?

    The first player's shoving range is very wide here but Mr_D_Gray must have a massive hand. So the fold is fine imo.

    Well, 8 seats with 14 left- but only just got moved to the table, had been there perhaps an orbit or so.

    That was pretty much my reasoning too... but is it really too nitty with AK?

    It's a tough one , you have to give the re-shove guy credit for a pocket pair. So if it's QQ or less we have a race, so 2.1k to call into 5.3k pot is giving you the odds.

    However, you have to factor in the times they turn over KK or AA.

    In conclusion, a bit like Matt Prior the other day, I'm stumped.

    You'll still have 3600 if you call Gray and lose which is 12 BB's and gives you a good shoving stack. If you win you have 10k and surely get a seat so I'd probably call.

    well i know ajw very very well, and  aq aj even a10suited is well within his rage for that type of bet, the 2nd is ob a bit more of a diliama, me personally i call with still a half decent stack behind me.

    This is an easy fold for me approaching the bubble in a satellite. In a position of relative comfort you don't want to be calling 2 shoves with AK.

    I think you were right to fold the ak,however there are some players who would call thinking they are priced into the hand given thier stack ,but 3 handed gives more % for your hand to be much weaker in respect,so making a good laydown and finding another quickshoot spot is prolly better.. You had a good amount of fold equity to fall back .gl deuces live
