Default Re: Never coldcall rule (theorish)

I agree that too many flat call opportunities exist, especially early in tourneys that are too +EV to pass up. If your not seeing flops with the sc's and small pp's cheap, there is a substantial leak in your tourney play. Small stakes nearly demands it as implied odds soar, getting paid off by top pair is a frequent occurrence.

Say your a the FT, you have 30bb's, unknown chip leader opens utg 3x, folds to you in bb, you pick up JJ, anything but flat calling here is weak/spew. Floating late in tourneys with the right stacks in play can be quite profitable as well, properly read and timed.

Too many opportunities exist not to put this in your arsenal in tourney play.
