MTT IQ Draught question 1#

[JonLines]

I had a previous post on this MTT IQ Test

In short - I need to find or produce an MTT IQ test for help with my dissertation that has quantifiable answers (right and wrong answers).

I have about 30 odd questions I will possibly be using, but this one is a bit less well defined than the others. I would be very grateful if people could read this, suggest the answers they would give, and say and pitfulls etc they can see with the question, or anyway of improving it. I have tried to ensure the language is kept simple so that people who are not used to the terminology can still answer. Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Jon

You enter a £75 buy-in MTT tournament. 96 people enter the tournament. The pay structure is as follows.

1st £2600
2nd £1500
3rd £800
4th £650
5th £500
6th £400
7th £300
8th £250
9th £200
10th £0

You are on the final table of the tournament, 10 people are left. The blinds are 400/800. You are sitting on the button (last position). There are 96,000 chips on the table, you only have 800 chips. There are 8 hands left before you will be forced all-in on the Big Blind (BB). The smallest stack after you has 2500 chips, he is currently on the BB.

1) The majority of people are playing tight, they are waiting for you to get knocked out so that they can ensure they reach the money, this is especially true of the player with 2500 chips. Please state in the following situations if you would call (all-in) for your last 800 or fold, and briefly say why.

a) You are dealt 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], there are three players in front of you who limp (call the blind).
b) You are dealt 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], everyone has folded around to you.
c) You are dealt K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], there is one player in front of you who limps (calls the blind).
d) You are dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], there is one player in front of you who limps (calls the blind).

2) In the above situations there has been a lot of aggressive and loose play from the other players, including the short stacks. They do not appear to be holding out for 9th place and the money, please state how you would play the hands in questions 1 a, b, c and d given this new information.
