razz short handed/final table tourney

[natanayro]

Just finished 5th in a razz tourney and felt I may have played too tight for too long. I am interested in hearing people's thoughts about razz short-handed. I usually stick by my guidelines of 3 starting cards under 8 unless everyone folds to me and I can steal.

One more question. After losing a big pot and being short stacked I went card dead and tried to stay patient waiting for an all-in hand. I had $6,000 with antes of 400. I ended up choosing 10 9 2 as the hand and now that I think about it I perhaps a better starting hand for the last gasp would have been something more like q26 or j37. Thoughts?
