First strat post, so be nice guys.

I am around 95th place with about 140 ppl left. Blinds had just gone up and the action was starting to get a little desperate, even though there were not any M's that were in the low low zone. My read was pretty much that he was geneally loose, but it doesn't really matter as this was pretty much the hand I put him on. Well, any small to medium pocket pair that is.

Being semi-new to the tourney thing was this a good or bad play considering the overall situation? Do I take a coinflip or wait for a better chance to get some chips?

Thanks.

Sorry, I couldn't get the converter to work. I promise to not make another strat post that isnt converted.
