I was 16th of 19th for 9 seats in an FPP tournament. CO, button, and BB are all sitting out, so I only had to get through one big stack. With all the players sitting out to my left, maybe I don't need to risk this steal.

Betgo,
This is an easy steal. The one guy in the pot has to wake up with a hand to call, and he may be folding a ton of non paired hands (AJ, AQ). If you were in the SB and it was folded to you, you would push this, right? I certainly would. |
