Default Re: Rainkhan and the 33 versus Alex Kravchenko

IIRC, they were the two shortest stacks and Yang already had the big stack. The BB thought for a while before he folded and the BB was playing pretty tight so it appears that the BB threw away something at least decent.

I think the arguement against it is that he's either a coinflip or crushed and he's not getting good enough odds. But IIRC, the SS here wasn't pushing that often and I think was UTG (somebody please verify/dispute that) and he still had Yang left to act when he pushed (Yang had already shown he would call light). So he has to have something and Khan should know he's at best a coinflip. If the better MTTers say it's a good play then I will defer to them but I think it was just too thin.
