No. This is a -EV move and you don't gain much stack power relative to the table by doubling up. Straight EV wise, it looks poor.

The main part of my multi game i'm struggling with right now is determining when and how to build a stack. I know this is a little late in the tournament and this post relates more to a general question that i am very interested in hearing opinions on too.
