Anyway, Ade’s strategy goes something like this: any time someone raises his big blind, if he looks down and sees at least one face card, he’s going to play the hand. Well, I did the same: if there was one face card or better, and the raise was not too big, I quickly called and played the flop.

I don't understand your puzzlement. If someone mini raises your BB you are priced in with any two. Seems like an ok strategy.

Small raises then.

Bearing in mind he’s potentially putting his tournament life at stake, I figured it’s a big pair or maybe AK. So why do I make the call with AQ? Well, playing in the WSOP has confirmed something that I have long known about myself. I like the thrill of gambling!

Calling when you "know" that you are dominated because it's your lucky hand....
