Blinds are at 50/100 and it's a $45 buy-in, 150 person local tourney, 20 minute rounds. Stacks for those involved are the same. The Cutoff has been loose but doubled up to original 700 chip starting point. The Button has been a solid aggressive player showing down good hands. Lost 1/2 stack with QQ v AK. That's the setup.

The table folds to the Cutoff who pushes for 675 and the Button looks down at his cards and almost instantly calls for his last 700. I'm in the BB and have 625 left after posting.

I have QJ, spades.

Make the call for my tournament life here or wait and pick a better spot, thanks.

fold, you shouldn't be playng this hand to a raise, nevermind an all in and an instant call.

I fold here as you still have some fold equity left and don't like calling 2 all ins with QJs. Your hand could be easily dominated and would rather be 1st in with QJ than calling 2 all ins ahead of me.

i echo the above.

both players probably ended up holding pocket rags and you would have won the hand or something of that nature,

but calling 2 all ins w/ qj suited is pretty ludicrous, even being below 10 bb.
