MP1 seems a bit of a station, CO has just lost most of his stack the previous hand when his JJ ran into Aces on a low flop. I've been opening light and folding or shoving to a 3-bet. I've been pretty active the last few circuits but have only shown big hands.
I've only three options here: Fold, call or shove. I'll invite other people's thoughts before I discuss my play.

1 fold, Hero raises to t500, MP1 calls t500, 1 fold, CO raises to t1900 all in, 3 folds, Hero...? |

I would push all in & try to isolate the CO. Chances are he is pushinf with ATC, a mix between tilting from his last loss & maybe a squeeze play. Call should not be an option. If you just call that will put 5100 in the pot & give MP1 over 3.5 to 1 on his money.
With pushing all in he would be getting horrible odds to call with anything that is not QQ or better in his hand. If he does donk call with AJ plus or even KQ, then at least your ahead & have the chance to almost triple up.
maybe,

| Thanks guys, obviously that's what I did but I thought it was worth getting some alternative ideas. The guy behind snap-called with AQos, the Cutoff had 55. Q on flop, gg. |

| that's a light call from him with AQos, but I suppose you get some of those with the knockout format. I suppose if he's able to put both of you on pairs less than QQ, than its an "OK" play. I agree with your shove and I think if you knew what everyone had its an even easier shove. ABout the best situation you could have hoped for, only 2 overs, so 8 cards to fade. |
