It's best to go AI first hand, you pickup the blinds and then no one can knock you out in one punch.... it's a good position to be on in the on table in

If there is a large gap between 3rd and 4th place payout, it's actually a good fold, because this way the big stack can continue to push most of his hands, since, with the smallstack almost certainly going out very soon, the two midstacks can only call with QQ+.

What about the "other" player's stats? Is he up more than 5K? Maybe they are colluding with the profits going to his AIM Buddy.
