B&M tourney with 70 out of 300 left. First prize $100,000.
Blinds are 100/200 with a 25 ante.

Table is pretty tight and I've been stealing a fair amount.
New guy sits down and he limps in early position. I am in
the cutoff with KQs. What is my play? I have T1400 left
and am the smallest or second smallest stack at the table.

Is there anything wrong with limping for 200 and seeing a cheap
flop? If I whiff I still have 6 BB and I live to see another
day.

No, easy push. If you take it down, it gives you over 500 chips whcih greatly incrases your stack. If you happened to get called, you are probably still in a decent position. I don't even think about this one.

I pushed and limper of course had pocket Aces and I was busted.
Couldn't help but think how if I had limped I still would have been alive. With 1200 in chips I still for at least two orbits
still did have steal equity.

and u limp behind and flop comes K high and ur still on the rail. You made the correct decision and got unlucky.

When you have 7 BB you need to get lucky and that's all there is to it.

Better luck next time.

Just curious but what B&M tourney has a $100,000 first prize where 270 of the 300 players are elminated when the blinds are still at 100/200? What was the structure here? Did the blinds start at 1/2? Seems a little odd to me.

Yeah, looks like a 1k buy-in, actually 230 not 270 eliminated, but still....

Bike with 300 buyin and unlimited rebuys and double addon allowed. Think blinds began at 5/10 or 10/15 with 40 minute
rounds.
