I was playing a live tournament. 100 entries. t1500 to start so 150k in play. paid top 9.
Chipleader ( not me ) had about 90k with 10 people left.
Second biggest stack had about 20k.
I had 7400.
Lowest stack 1800.
Chipleader knocked out so many players so quick that blinds were still only at 400-800.
Now since everyone was pretty low stacked the chipleader had gone all-in blind for four hands in a row and had not gotten called once, since we were in the bubble.
The fifth hand he again went all in UTG and im MP and look down at A /images/graemlins/diamond.gif- 6 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif. My main problem is that UTG+1 is the shortest stack and will probably have one more hand of play unless he doubles up. I figure against a random hand im probably 60-40.
I like to think of myself as a sole go for first guy... but noticing all those short-stacks and one monster stack im just hoping to place high.
So what do you think, take the risk?
