Default Re: Is an all-in here totally out of line?

[ QUOTE ]
3 handed at the end of a live 11 person tournament.

I have about $110 in chips, newbie luckbox has $180 and skilled but passive guy has about $20. Blinds are $4/$8. I was not the chip leader, but I seemed to have the table under control.

Hero is dealt A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] on the button with luckbox to the left. Hero goes all-in trying to pick up blinds.

Too much risk to earn too little $ or is it ok?

I think its not good enough, I would raise it to 20, remember that you dont care about giving BB good odds to call so you should probably bet a smaller amount ( u are worried that SB doesnt see the flop cheaply, 20 seems good enough to me)
