5 rebuy on stars, 27 left. im around 12th.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t12000 (9 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

UTG (t176792)
UTG+1 (t41568)
MP1 (t40657)
MP2 (t111396)
Hero (t120314)
CO (t355192)
Button (t124550)
SB (t305669)
BB (t91860)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with Q/images/graemlins/club.gif, T/images/graemlins/club.gif.
<font color="#666666">[i]4 folds


10 bbs, so push or fold?

Note: I have not shown down a single steal, only folded to resteals, so my image most likely is tight aggressive.

A push on the button or CO is fine. MP3 you're still risking someone waking up with a hand. I like a fold.

I think there are a few important things you are not telling us.

I'm gonna guess 27 is in the money - but at what point does it move up? and how much? out of 27 left - what place are you in?

And also - are the blinds moving up soon? or did they just move up?

ALL of those factors, including the blinds moving up or not would sway my decision on how to play this hand.

For example - if 20th -27th all pay the same, I'm sitting in 25th, and blinds are gonna go up in 2 minutes, I like a push here.

If your in 12th of 27 left, pay increases a few times between now and 15th, and the blinds just went to this level, I like a fold.

I knew I was forgetting something /images/graemlins/grin.gif

63 was money, the blinds were going up in less than 5 minutes. Right now 27th is 65 dollars, next payout increase is 18th, and it increases 20 dollars. not a significant amount of money.

I like a fold.. I still think you're an orbit or two from desperation.

An All-in isn't terrible though with a hand like that. I think either option is viable.

I certaintly wouldn't blame anybody for making that move. If I'm at a REALLY tight table, I might make it..
