seems a bit loose, given the stack depth, but if he thought he was ahead, he thought he was ahead. i, and i'm sure most people, weren't watching the game as intently as say, MasterSNG was, so he's probably got a better feel for the guy's range than we do.

Keep in mind that MTTs are WAY top heavy in terms of payouts. That sometimes makes marginal gambles worth it. I don't play very many MTTs so I don't know if this is right.
