You have to consider that if this idea made the ME an even bigger deal to the general public, all the new players (and their $) this could bring into the poker world. This would have to be +EV for the typical poster on FCP.One other thing this does is make the ME standout even further from typical tournaments. Great marketing idea.

Here's the situation:Near the end of the first hour or early in the 2nd hour of a MTT. I have less than the starting stack of 1500 chips with say 1200 chips which leaves me with an M of 4 or 5. This usually leaves you with about half the current average stack. I pick up AKo in middle position. A player in front of me with average stack of 2500 chips raises 3xbb to 300 (1/4 of my stack). Let say the raiser is average, neither a nit or a maniac (although I'm not sure it matters). What's the right play?- Fold? - I can't see this being right folding a hand this good with a smallish stack.-

Tales from the super-tilted:The situation is the money bubble. My thinking was that the push would discourage any action and that I'd happily take the blinds and antes then get back to playing a little more conventionally once the bubble broke.Was this not a donktastic call on his part?Thoughts?------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------PokerStars Game #13230402762: Tournament #66630798, $30+$3 Hold'em No Limit - Level X (400/800) - 2007/11/14 - 01:38:46 (ET)Table '66630798 2' 9-max Seat #9 is the b
