Re: $10+1 vs. $50+5
10+1: Easy all-in and I don't think it's close. Of the hands that are beating you right now, I would expect SB to have raised preflop AA, KK, AK, and quite often A9 and 99 as well. Almost no one in the 10's gives a flying care about position or the number of people in a pot. They see pretty-looking cards and raise. Most likely, the check-raise is coming from a naked ace or king, or a spade flush draw. If you're unlucky, SB has A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] or something like that.
50+5: OK, here I'm talking out my a$$, but I'll put in a word and hopefully get flame-corrected if it sucks. The limps from UTG+1 and MP2 mean more here, so I'm still a little nervous about betting out TPTK early on in the tournament into a small pot with a semi-scary board. Betting puts me in a tough spot if raised, so I'm less inclined to bet in the first place. After betting and getting raised, I probably fold to the raise, then get pissed when he shows KTo.
