Big Ace in a Multi-Table Rebuy Tournament

Game type: $3 MTT Rebuy Tournament

Misc notes: Table is very wild, around 3-5 players are all in preflop everyhand with any range of cards. Any two suited, any ace, any broadway, and any pair seems to work for most the table. 3 players at the table just lost and rebought for 3k while one only rebought for 1500.
Your hand: A♠J♠

Flop: Player A after just rebuying, pushed all in. B called, 4 folded SB who also just rebought called. Your action:

I don’t play a lot of rebuys but it seems like you are a pretty big dog with this hand, maybe too much of a gamble.

I know you are getting terrific odds, but you have also built a good stack and losing 3-4k out of that stings. If you were just at 3 or 4k, I can see chucking it in.

Calling and moving all in seem pretty much the same here. Am i missing something?

Folding is crazy! Rebuys, especially the small buy in ones, are friggin nuts near the break. AJ SOOTED looks like two jokers to me.

You can’t get enough chips early in the tournament in the crazy 3r’s-10rs ive been in on stars.
Near the end of the hour shortstacks often try and buy a stack, i can’t raise this pot fast enough.

I fold. Despite being a nutfarm of a table, I don’t think I’m ahead.

Wow. If losing this game means the world to your bankroll, fold it. The other option is all in.

Time to get wild too let’s gamble now. We can win 11k chips and have a good stack to progress the tourney. So gamble it and hope for the best.

this being a five-way pot on a wild table i’m not too worried about being dominated, but i *am* worried about being up against small or middle pair with two more people flipping over Ax hands.

I don’t play a lot of rebuys but there is no fold equity here if you raise so why not just call here and shove the flop unless it hits you hard in which case let v shove into you. We are not favored here but the chips gained if we do win are too nice to fold it.
