Fold. Think about it this way. Assume it's a coinflip. If you lose the coinflip, you lose your buyin. If you win the coinflip, you don't necesarrily double your buyin.

Wouldn't the added equity in the tournament if I win counter the chance that I lose? If I win, I'm not guaranteed to double my buy in, but folding doesn't assure me of anything other than to see another hand either. I'm not saying I disagree, I'm just trying to think this through.
