Default Folding QQ preflop revisited


If you recall, I posted a couple months ago about folding on the bubble with QQ utg. Last night I was in virtually the same situation. I went all in last night. Result - bubble boy. Here are the reasons why I chose the twoplustwo approved all-in move this time:

1. This was a much larger tournament, where finishing in the money was still 40 spots from the real money.
2. In the money also just barely covered the buy-in (maybe that's an Ultimatebet thing).
3. I was a somewhat shorter stack than the previous example. If I went through the blinds one more time, I would become almost an auto-call to any player with a reasonable hand.


Here is the link to the previous thread - Weak play, or right play?
