I know...they are obviously playing to win. What they are doing seems kind of crazy to me.

[Fatdogs12]

God your right he does call everything...

Congrats on 4th, well played

[FieryJustice]

well, I made a push into the calling station and i happened to have a 3 outer...go figure. Thanks to everyone who game to watch. I appreciate it.

[FieryJustice]

everyone tells me this is bad. The way I look at it, if he calls, he just might have the worse hand and I will be in contention to win it. I would obviously rather him fold, but he is a calling station. Also, I have not pushed into him any since I got to the final table, I dont think. Maybe he didnt notice that. Oh well. It was probably a bad play.

K-S says this push is more than fine, in a +CEV sense... your stack is effectively tied for last I don't think there's any real reason for ICM to say anything different...

[Pasterbator]

I think i push this too. I was watching the table (silently) and i didn't understand why everyone thought it was awful. You were in 2nd place by 9k chips. Thats not very much. It's still about 1/3 of the chip leader. Anyway, tough break that he had you dominated. Next time he'll have K9 and you'll suck out.

[curtains]

It's quite possible that pushing was wrong. I suspect you could even use SNG power tools to answer this if you break everything down, and just treat it as a bubble situation. Not sure what the prize structure was exactly, but I know the jump from 4th-3rd is usually quite steep.
