How much did the limper have in front of him?Man, what a picky group. :-)

I beleive he was the chip leader at our table with about 3,500

All in or fold. I'm leaning toward fold, you don't need to go all in yet (against the chip leader with a marginal hand). You still have 13xBB

[trentose]

That was a tough one for me, but against the chip leader, i would fold i think.

If the l imper wasn't the chip leader I'd say push to either take it down or double and move up in the tourney. But since it was the chip leader I'd say fold, unless he's been passive and not CALLING peoples big bets.

It was either all-in or fold. And i thought for a little, and decided to fold.It turns out that I would've had 2 pair on the flop and would've won the hand, but im happy with my decision.

It might not have been too bad to limp either...hope you get lucky and double through the chip leader. Now that I know the results of the hand! :wink: j/kBut really...I dont thinkg a limp would be bad.

[JFarrell20]

I'd probably just move all in here, because it was the chipleader who limped.WRTO, A-10 is a very strong hand in this position. Your posts seems to be inconsistent. You said you would call an all-in with KQoff, but you won't push all-in with A-10, when you are nearly short-stacked??? Granted, you have 4 more hands to see for free, but most likely you won't get dealt anything even close to A-10. Push all in and steal 250. Or better yet, get called by the (temporary) chipleader with Q10 off or KQ off and hopefully double up.

Could our very own wrto4556 be none other than John Kerry? :think:
