Re: Final Table Theories
This depends on the payout structure, but if it's like most MTT's, your play should be geared toward making the top 3 spots, not to move up from 9th to, say, 7th. Push your A9 and suck out when you get called by AJ.
The fact that all in pushes are "mostly" successful reinforces that this is the right move. No one at the table can afford throw away chips even to the short stack. The fact that you will increase your stack by nearly 50% most of the time is enough. This is one spot where HOH2's FT movie is right: position and even hand strength take a back seat to getting it all in first.
