Sklansky NLHE System... tournament report and a question

[DigitalNate]

Well I finally decided to give the all-in or fold system a try. I had been thinking about it for a while, and decided tonights $2 buy in NLHE tourney on stars, with 472 players at the start, was a decent place to try it out. Here's what happened...

I folded a lot early on, as the blinds didn't reach an appropriate level for a while. I took the blinds with an AA after about 4 orbits, but other than that I folded until about the 8th orbit, when I caught a KQs from late position. I raised all in after it was folded to me, and got 1 caller who was about T100 behind me. The caller turned over JTs (huh? this confused my a bit, as I would lay this hand down in a heartbeat to a 29*pot raise heads up), and I took it down with a pair of kings to his jack high. After that I folded quite a bit, but once we reached 100/200 I started taking the blinds once every 2 or 3 orbits. I was sitting at about T3500, a bit below average for that time in the tourney. I then took the 100/200 and then 150/300 blinds about 5 out of the last 10 hands with a nice run of cards that I would have been happy to have callers on, a couple times with a limper or 2 folding to my raise. Sitting 1 off the button I get dealt KJo. Folded around to me (people started getting wary I guess, this had been bit of a loose table for a while), I checked my calculator program I had written during a tourney last night, and raised all-in. Folded to the big blind, who had around T6000. Big blind calls my all-in bet, and turns over AQo. An ace hits on the river and I'm done, in 168th place.

This has got me thinking that it might be beneficial to add in some kind of calculation to take into account the stack size of opponents still to act. I was thinking maybe somewhere along the lines of:

(largest opponents stack still to act/your stack size) * key number

This would minimize you butting heads with someone who will call with almost any 2 cards when you hold marginal hands, which hurts when they get more than a chance or 2 to draw out on you. The only problem I see is that it could cause you to play too few hands. If anyone has any thoughts on this I would appreciate your input.
