Busted out 50 short of the money with this hand, it sucks but i cant fold right?

It was a nice hand with live cards - but you could have folded, or you could have tried to manage the pot to keep it smaller on 3rd. Maybe that wouldn't work, but the question is: did you want to make the money? You got two opponents in here. Let them knock each other out.
I read something once by Joe Seebok, I think it was, about going out near the money in a tournament under the philosophy: "I came to win." I believe his father gave him the advice that first you get in the money, then you "win."
This isn't everone's philosophy, but it made sense to me.
You can fold.

Its true i satellited in, but making the money was not my primary concern so i would never fold the likely best hand on 3rd. In addition Mausilein was playing a bit loose in the Holdem and O8 levels so i didnt necessarily put him on 3 to a wheel.
I think folding a live wheel draw on 3rd would have been awful. Flatcalling might have been the way to go considering stack sizes, but i couldn't know 4th would be that hard to me [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
