Am I getting bullied

Bandana boy

online MTT

27 paid but top 10 for real money and top 4 for something serious
we have 20 left and I am substantial chip lead in tourney when the following 3 hands happen

I have 245K
blinds are 5K-10k

I get tt in ep i raise to 25K a random player goes all in for 50K and BB our villain goes all in for 75K I fold
BB has KK to QQ
it stands up Villain now has 150K

On my next BB i see 88 and villain has pushed and got a caller i lay down
Villain had AA
he now covers me

I then get AJ on button Villain limps i raise to 25K and he pushs
I fold

We play another round neither me or villain play a hand we are down to 13players blinds go up to 8K 15K
when in EP I get AT i raise to 35K leaving 120K behind and villain in blinds pushs again covering me

Should I be contemplating a stand here ?
is fold again my only option ?

You are probably looking at a race here. Meh i fold , I'm never calling off my chips with A 10 in this spot against this villain. He has shown quality hand in all the prev showdowns and the limp/reraise AI was prob a monster too.I think the fact you raised from EP lessens the chances you are being bullied. He has a hand here. Up to you whether you want to flip a coin AT BEST.

smurph

would personally fold here, you were definitely not getting bullied on previous hands, premium hands were shown.

He is doing a Jade Goody on your ass, pick a better spot imo.

BigCityBanker

straight forward fold imo.

Push preflop :-) (or fold)

Fold now. And I don't like the raise PF either, either push or fold as FB says.

I dont agree that with this stack size this is a push or fold hand
even though i have taken a kicking i still have chips on most of the table
AT plays very well against players with 2-3 BB's left and i am happy to play them
It doesnt play so well against players with 8-10 BBs left
in theory i am happy to raise and lay down here to action from another serious stack

My only concern is that this guy has had 2 big re-raises against me I have made the correct laydown but he had no inkling of what i was laying down
I was worried that he could be trying it on I mean the odds of 4 big hands been dominated by the same player in 3 rounds of the table is unlikely do we not think ?

Well
I laid down and 2 hands later I pushed with 99 and he called with QJ i lost the race which had me thinking back that probably this hand would have been a better standing point

I don't play online MTT's so I don't know what the stacks are like here, or what the overall standard is like. But, I don't like making a 2.5BB raise with the intention of folding to action and having 7BB left. Especially with the blinds coming up as well. But maybe people are happy to play with lower BB stacks online?

And even if you include his stealing hands in his range, it would be a very marginal call here getting 6/4 on your money, I think.
