Re: A couple of hands from my last tourney i want to discuss (vol 1)

Hand 2 - Fold. You mention he's a generally tight player, and while the blinds are catching up, I don't think he's desperate yet. I don't think he's making this move with 88 or less, which means you are very likely up against a higher pair or two overcards. This is the classic "slight favorite or huge dog" scenario, and I don't think it justifies a call. Wait for a better spot.

I have to disagree. I think its fairly clear that AA-QQ are much less likely than if he'd raised to 2K or so. Unless, of course, opp has been raising all-in frequently, hence moving all-in is likely to disguise a monster. This is more a case of slight to huge favorite, where JJ, and MAYBE even QQ are the only plausible hands that beat you.
