I think I might be.

PokerStars Game #2982459083: Tournament #14725674, Hold'em No Limit - Level VI (100/200) - 2005/11/05 - 19:42:33 (ET)
Table '14725674 1' Seat #8 is the button
Seat 1: IMSAKIDD (3090 in chips)
Seat 2: suxOrzz (1105 in chips)
Seat 3: Garnasty (4805 in chips)
Seat 6: Bulldog13a (2240 in chips)
Seat 8: jchpsu06 (2260 in chips)
IMSAKIDD: posts small blind 100
suxOrzz: posts big blind 200
*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to IMSAKIDD [Td Jd]
Garnasty: folds
Bulldog13a: folds
jchpsu06: folds
IMSAKIDD: raises 1000 to 1200
suxOrzz: calls 905 and is all-in

I will post results after discussion. He has been pretty tight, and I figured he was more likely to fold if i put him all-in. Thoughts? Remember this is a low buy in turbo...

even if the BB has been playing tight [and this is taking into account the low buy-in] he could still simply call you with any two based how loose you've appeared the play before this hand. i don't like this play with the blinds at 100/200. if you lose, you are now the lowest stack out of 4 players all around the 2K [your's is sub 2K].

Yes, but this isn't it.

I'm pushing worse hands than JT here


EDIT: Glad to see my intuition is fairly accurate. I ran it through my newly aquired SnGPT, and it likes pushing a very large range here.

U have to be kididng me..Im defenetly pushing. Thinking that Pondering that folding is even an option is an horrible, horrible mistake.

Anyway, the guy had Q8o, and I caught 2 tens to win.

I was confused that this seemingly tight player called off his entire stack preflop with Q8o.... I was expecting at least an Ace or something.
