advice, please...

so, i'm in a thirty person no limit hold em tourney. i'm at the last table, ten people. third last position, jq off. blinds in, everybody folds, i call, everyone behind me folds, making me the button. flop is akt offsuit.

so i flop broadway. blinds check, i go all in. i've got about a third what they have. blinds are fairly big at this point. should i have slowplayed this? i probly should have, since they both folded, but the blinds were quite large, and i was getting low on stacks...advice??

Putting this on the Tournaments Forum should get you more responses.


I don't play tournaments but I suspect that some people will say you should have gone all-in pre-flop after everybody folds to you.

You don't say what you stack size was at this point other than it was "getting low."

This is important info, but I'll imagine that by this you mean you've got less than 10x the BB and maybe 5x or less.

So pre-flop, everyone folds to you and you have QJ?

All In. No question. You'll hopefully never even see that flop.
