Default Re: Do you make moves when you\'re card dead?

If you do get it folded to you late then yeah, you could at least try to grab the blinds. You could also try restealing out of the BB if a particularly aggressive player raises you from LP. However, I wouldn't get carried away with it. You are card dead now, but the table you describe is going to pay you hansomely when you get a hand. Try to slip in a couple steals if you can to stay afloat, but really what you are looking for is one hand that is going to double you up. If the players are loose and aggressive, the way to beat them is to value bet like a mother.

Of course, you could also just stay card dead for the rest of the tournament, and there comes a point where you're just going to have to start pushing to stay afloat. Sometimes, that's the way the cookie crumbles.
