    Hi all,
    Played the $12 rebuy tourno last night on PP in the $5000 guaranteed & it came down to 4 of us from 333 players. 1st $2500, 2nd $1500, 3rd $ 800, 4th $560. I was in BB with 225k chips. Blinds 20k, 40k.
    UTG ( 250k) & button (900k) folded. . SB (180k) just called the 20k bet & I look down at A9o. Before this hand, it was a chip fest with any A, K or pair usually going all in, so 100% sure he wasn't that strong. I also showed strong hands anytime I had gone all in since final table started.

    Was I right to go all in?
    Was he right to call the 225k raise with QJs,even though he had chips to play with. ie, 170k to call to win 260k? Odds 60-40%??

    result: Q on flop crippled me to less than Sb & finished 4th :rolleyes:

    5bbs + decent ace = shove

    you were right to shove, he was right to call (although he should have pushed, not called the sb).
    The final table of these things are always a complete crapshoot... nothing can be done about that.

    I have played a lot of these tourneys on ppp ($12/$20 rebuys) and any time I have won one it was down to winning the races on the final table... end of.
