Default Re: $2.20 sattelite to Sunday 100k fold AKs preflop?

I read the subject line and thought, absolutely not.

Now I've read the thread and I think, absolutely not.

Push preflop. As played, push flop.

Calling is also doable. But I think you need a few more chips to make this a fold.

1400 in the pot, I'd just shove pre. Hopefully the blinds don't wake up to any hands. As played, I'd shove the flop too.

Shove pre, pick up the pot and take your lottery ticket. Are these actually a worthwhile way of building a roll, even though you only win 11 dollars?

Have to take the dissenting view....

The average stack is not important, It is your position relative to the bubble position (29). I'd bet with your stack your around 14 maybe higher.

1. 15 people have to pass you before you are the bubble boy.
2. There are 3 low stacks at your table. Even if they double up, they WILL NOT be ahead of you.
3. One of the big stacks is in the hand already. In these sat's the big stack can be real pricks. If you wiff how are you going to proceed?????
4. ~7900 is enough fold your way in.
5. Remember the Sat's are about survival, survival, survival. Do NOT play drawing hands when you have a big stack. With your stack and position I have folded KK.
6. Remember 1st gets 11.00 and 29 get 11.00


Important: These Sat's ARE/NOT an easy way to make 11.00 [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Exactly... Plus there are easy LOW RISK ways to mantaining an 8K stack here...

I bet you even get a couple walks in the blinds...

Why put your stack at risk?
