So Andy, Praxising, do you really consider a fold on 4th Street a viable alternative, leaving you totally crippled at a Stack of less than 2 Big Bets, in utter need to play a Hand within the next 4 or 5 Hands in order to double up and still be left with a stack that desperately needs to increase to have a chance of making the money?

I was talking about folding third. I would have, if I'd wanted to play, called not raised. If the 4 came in, especially raising, I would have gotten out. My experience with HORSE (limited, to be sure) is that there are usually not a lot of real Razz players there. To get through 50 players to the money, if you are a Razz player, this is the time to steal, not get involved in big hands.

But going for the double-up is another way to play. But not against two reraising opponents who are going all-in, who can easily suck out your premium hand. Or do that, if it works, you are in nice position. It's just a difference in approaches to tournament play.

Now, once all committed on 4th the way it was, then, of course, you go all-in.
