Re: I think I\'m a Donkey! final table Blunder!??
You made the correct play. If you don`t push KQ UTG, you`re looking at only 250k left when the BB hits you. KQ is in the top 10% of the total hand range, you can`t expect to get something better in the BB or SB. If you fold both of those you`re down to 225k and will have much less fold equity and chances are you will be forced into pushing trash within the next orbit.
Folding yourself into more money means an extra $10-$30 max. By making the play that you did, you give yourself the chance to win $100+ more than you would have.
I`m assuming the person that called you an idiot is waiting around for Ax or pocket pairs. If you play like this, you can not win a tournament.
