Both of the players were long term loosing players. No stats.

t15/t30 Blinds - 9 players

UTG+1: t1485 49.50 BBs
UTG+2: t1080 36 BBs
MP1: t1500 50 BBs
MP2: t1500 50 BBs
CO: t1755 58.50 BBs
BTN: t1515 50.50 BBs
SB: t1470 49 BBs
BB: t1665 55.50 BBs
Hero (UTG): t1530 51 BBs

Pre Flop: (t45) Hero is UTG with :Ac: :kh:
Hero raises to t90, 1 fold, UTG+2 calls t90, 5 folds, BB raises to t180, Hero raises to t1530 all in

Is it fine to do this? Note that this is a regular game, not a turbo.

I don't mind it. You should realize tho, that BB proly gonna have a pocket pair, and he's never folding that. I see that a lot of times from fishes. Minraise preflop, because....I don't know what they are thinking, and when you reshove they call, because you cannot have anything but AK.:)))

Yeah thats pretty much possible. Imo the point is that sometimes I'll get the pot uncontested, other times I will be up against a weaker ace and the rest of the times against mostly a PP and thats a sort of flip. Thats why I think its not that terrible to make this sort of a move.
