tourny pays top 30, 19-20 remain
-blinds are 4000-8000, increasing soon
-you have 74000, 1 000 000 in play, roughly 3rd or 5th or so in chips
-you're small blind
all fold to midposition who raises to 20k (he's roughly 2nd in chips with 115k)
all fold to you and you call with A-10o, BB folds
flop brings A98 rainbow
after studying the bored for less than half a second he pushes in all 115k

what do you do?

hmmm....Im in the small blind, yet he acted first

and Im folding

I'm folding. And I mean preflop.

The average chip stack is 6 big blinds? How about not playing in this tourney!!

Easy fold

absent of reads. i'm folding preflop.

never am i calling preflop with blinds that big and my position.

i'd come over the top for all my chips if i had a good read taht he was on a steal play.


but with blinds that big....i'm not calling...EVER. fold or move in preF
