Tournament Scenario
Tournament is 3-handed; payouts are 50/30/20.
Button has T700 You (SB) have T2,600 BB has T10,200 Blinds are 75/150. The button folds; the BB is a decent and aggressive player. Do you raise (how much?), fold, or move in, and why? |

Re: Tournament Scenario
I'm going to ask the obvious question: What cards were you dealt?

Re: Tournament Scenario
Um...am I missing something? What cards do I have? That sometimes affects my decision-making process.

Re: Tournament Scenario
I voted fold.
Reasons: I dont know what my cards are and with the small stack being so small an all I dont need to steal with any 2. |

Re: Tournament Scenario
this is an obvious all in. you are obviously already pot committed with 75 chips in the pot, so there's no way you can get away from this hand. you don't want to just call or raise a small amount because you don't want to give your opponent free cards, as you're clearly ahead at this point. by going all in, you might make your opponent think that you're just trying to steal his blind, so there's a good chance that he'll call with his obviously inferior hand.

[/ QUOTE ] i cant work out if your being sarcastic or if your drunk. i think the point that the post was about is your have a great hand (that is secret to even you apparently) so do you fold with a probable second place, or play for the double, risk a knock out but increasing your 1st place chances.
