This is a satellite to a daily Bellagio $540. Entry to the satellite is $130, 10 people start, 2 win entries $540. Starting chips 1,500.

We’re down to 3 handed. Blinds 200/400, no ante. Big Stack 11,200. Loose player 1,800 and me 2,000.

Reads:
Loose player is to my left and has been willing to gamble with mediocre hands. He made his chips by catching lucky calling allin with a flush draw and calling allin with A3 vs AA.

Big Stack is pretty solid and wants to sit on his chips, but won’t fold a legitimate hand preflop.

I have not shown down a hand the entire table and have been allin or fold for the past 15 minutes. I’ve been stealing blinds often enough to try to maintain my chips and my table image is probably loose-aggressive.

The deal offered is that big stack gets an entry, and loose player pays me $285 to get the second entry. I will not buy in to the tourney after the deal – I only planned to play if I won a seat. I'm currently the BB. Thoughts?
