MTT (Card Dead)

[G Baade]

I am curious what some of the really good MTT players do when they are getting crap cards?


Heres the scenario. 100 person MTT. 15000 in starting chips. Blinds start at 100 200 and go up every 30 minutes. You have been seeing junk for 2 hours and the blinds are now at 800 and 1600. You have hung around and have about 14500 left. You have less thank 10 blinds and they will be going up soon. The other important thing is that the table is very loose and if you try to make a raise with a hand like A 7 in position you will get called. The flop misses you every time it seems so do you?

I seem to get stuck in this situation alot and dont know what to do. It seems whenever I am in position I have something like 10 3. And out of position I get hands I am tempted to play like K J suited. Which is a crap hand but looks real good when your seeing 8 4 all night.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
