This was a $15/1 turbo SNG on stars. The BB had been absent for a long time and I was positive he wasn't coming back.
Now. I KNOW I'm going to get called here, but I try to play to win these things, not just money in them. Would anyone advocate folding here and just sneaking into the money. I have absolute confidence that I can outplay big stack, I just need some chips to get into position to take first. Three more orbits, and he's gone, but, at the same time, I'll be down to less than 500 chips at that point.
Or... would you simply fold here and take the guaranteed $27?
