I'd love a 97s here, and yes I would call preflop with it.

Yeah. Especially early in a low limit where the calling req's are so wide, this pot will likely end up multi-way, and the stacks are juicy.

No. Mainly because of the same reasons. I think a fold here decreases the luck factor. I also don't want to get pushed on when I raise. I think it's very likely we end up in a pot where we're the dominating ace, there's another ace and a pair and an ATC. There will be better spots. Note that with AK, we're a lot better off- any pair is a coinflip, any ace is dominated. Although I certainly wouldn't want to get in the above scenario, I'd feel better about it with AK.

Also, this may be a bit weak-tight, but this hand is NOT the sole determinant of my tourney success.
