With just one player i am all in quickly. I think with two players all in you have to fold this and give one of the schmucks credit for K9 or else a set...

Well I don't like it but I would reluctantly call this. There is $2000 in the pot and its $500 to you. When you win you have $2500 and knock two players out. This goes a long way toward actually winning the tourney as long as you dont screw it up. If you fold here you are in a hole. Not a huge hole but big enough to seriously impact your ability to make the money.

[/ QUOTE ] how live do you think you are here? I am thinking maybe my ace makes me a winner... maybe drawing to runners. True at low limits you could see TT then KQ here, but stilll do you think you'll be winning this hand any appreciable amount of the time? I dont

I just think with two all ins behind you, you are most likely trailing, one all in I call not two just me.
