Default So you made it to the final table of the WSOP main event...

[Situation A] There's three people left, including you. By some weird coincidence, you all have the exact same chip count. You're in the BB. Dealer raises to about half of everyone's chip stacks. This is a huge raise. SB thinks about it for awhile, then pushes all in. You look down to A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] . What do you do?

[Situation B] Same set up and betting sequence as Sit. A, but this time you look down to A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] . What do you do?

[Situation C] You are chip leader in a three-handed tourney, and the chips look like this: YOU = 25,000,000; #1 = 12,500,000; #2 = 12,500,000. You're BB again. The button raises all-in and SB immediately calls. You look down to pocket queens. What do you do?

Fold - I'm garaunteed to move up in $ if I fold, why risk it?

Call - I can knock out 2 players here, can't pass that up

Call - I can't bust, someone will, if I call maybe 2 bust

situation b is a pretty easy call

situation c has to be a call as well

situation a is the interesting one - what are the payouts? just like the normal wsop?

The point is more to think about the payouts and the chances of winning the tournament, not the hands. Obviously, those are solid hands, but - except for the AA - you have to feel vulnerable to a raise -> all in situation with either AK or QQ late in a tourney.
