Default 99 on the bubble against 2 raises.

33 SNG. BB had been using his big stack like he should bullying alot.

I'm unsure how to play this. I thought it was unlikely that both BB and UTG would beat me, since BB would push any two and UTG was pretty desperate.

In hindsight I think I should have folded, but the chance of almost trippling up here (giving me a good shot at 1st) made me call.

Comments please.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (4 handed) converter

BB (t835)
UTG (t5670)
Button (t535)
Hero (t960)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t5670 (All-In)</font>, Button calls t535 (All-In), Hero calls t960 (All-In), <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>.

Flop: (t7365) A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players, 3 all-in)</font>

Turn: (t7365) 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players, 3 all-in)</font>

River: (t7365) K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players, 3 all-in)</font>

Final Pot: t7365

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
UTG has 2s Ah (two pair, aces and twos).
Button has Td Tc (one pair, tens).
Hero has 9c 9h (one pair, nines).
Outcome: UTG wins t7365. </font>

Terrible call, I think people deserve to bust out when they do things like this.

I say this because your goal should be finishing ITM then gambling, you could easily be up against 4 overcards and then you are gonna need to get extremely lucky to survive.

Anyways the short stack should be playing pretty tight here and more than likely has you beat, as he did.
