Winner take all, $30 cash and $300 in tourny buy-in chips.
10-handed, 300 chips to start. Blinds every 15 min
5-15
10-25
25-50
50-100
100-200 (I think)

Seat 10 has knocked out 4 players within the first 20 hands and is the big stack.

Hand 1 (10-25):
Hero UTG +1, (T280) A /images/graemlins/spade.gifJ /images/graemlins/spade.gif
I have not played a hand yet, folding my blinds pf or check/fold on flop.
Hero raises to 75. Folded to BB who calls.
Flop KQT with 2 hearts.
BB Checks
Hero Checks
Turn blank (5s I think)
BB all-in (I have him covered)
Hero Call.

Hand 1 I have no problem with, I just included it to show how I got my small stack. (He had KT and rivered a 3rd T to fill up.) Should I push on the flop though? I'm sure he still would have called and won, but will I get calls from one pairs or gut-shots? (cant remember exact stack sizes, sorry).

I'm down to T100 (4BB). I would have pushed any A, or pair, and probably any two broadway. Too loose, just right? (5-6 players left).

I folded until..

Hand 2 (10-25; increasing next hand):
Hero (T100) is UTG with 36o folds.
Anyone push here? I figure I push next hand, chances are its better than 36.

Hand 3 (25-50)
Hero (T100 before posting) in BB with J2o
5 players left
Big stack calls
2nd call (stack >300)
SB all in for T100
Hero calls.

I figure I need to get lucky to have a shot to win. I'd rather get all-in with 100 against four players than all-in for 50 next hand with 2 or 3 players.
