Tough spot to be in. Many raises by all players in this game, everyone has been aggressive stealing the blinds.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t400 (4 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

SB (t2100)
Hero (t880)
UTG (t2010)
Button (t3010)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 9/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 6/images/graemlins/club.gif.

And if you fold, which hands would you call here with?

You MUST call. With any 2.

I did, just checking to make sure I did the right thing.

I assume a stop and go would be the play of choice here?

(no matter if the flop hit me or not)

Why?

You'd have 80 chips left after calling the raise.

Yeah that is why haha, cause I have 80 chips.

I have seen a plarer in the 10s fold to a 80 chip vet with 1000+ in the pot before...

Well, I've seen wacky stuff too. But I think the frequency of this guy folding hardly makes discussing whether or not you should stop n' go here.

If he folds, have fun watching the other shorter stacks freak out.

Yeah you need to play the hand. Also I like the stop+go option. Although it should be blatantly obvious that your opponent will call for 80 in a 1600 chip pot, I've seen crazier things. There's no reason not to take the 1 in 500-2000 chance that this happens.

A couple days ago, I accidently hit the "Fold" button when I meant to call my opponent's allin, purely a mechanical error. Xxxx happens.

P.S. I was beat
