Re: 89s Tourney Hand--please advise
You're getting called if 1. one of the blinds has a big hand or 2. if one of the EP guys are trapping. At this stage in the tournament it's not entirely likely that someone is trapping, but I don't know for sure. Stack sizes are sort of important, I think, to know for sure, though.
I think there are merits to your play though, as it still leaves you w/ 1700 and that's certainly something to work with. I'd rather gamble I guess and hope that my cards are live EDIT: which is fairly important this early in the tournament.
