    $10 9seater STT, blinds 100/200, 4 players left.
    I have 13000 chips, 2 midstacks have ~2400 and shortstack has 205.
    I have been blatantly bullying the midstacks with atc for 2 orbits, and have won 7 of the last 8 hands uncontested -the midstacks are clearly waiting for the shortstack to be knocked out.
    In this hand I have AA in the SB, Shortstack is BB and the 2 midstacks fold.
    Should I fold my AA here? The most it can win is 305 chips, but folding it will allow me to possibly steal 300 per hand for a while yet.
    AJs.

    I think if I had less of a commanding lead I would consider folding, as it stands even if one of the mid stacks knocks out both other players you will have a 2:1 advantage. I would just go for the win now.

    This is something that only occurs in hypothetical situations, I don't think I've ever seen a real life example. Now that it happened to you I think folding is best.
