The prize money was  1st  $1000

                               3rd  $450
                               4th  $300
My mate is adament I shouldnt call in this position because i will move up the money if jcking1 goes out
I normally would fold and hope to move up a place but I really wanted to get 1st so I gambled.
All 4 of us were playing quite tight considering it was 4 handed, tho jcking was quite LAG the whole final table.
What do you do?

you have a half decent hand and you only have 1 BB and a bit left. it's a fair call. and if you wanted a shot at winning the thing then you needed to scoop this. you have a shot at a high with your sixes and the low with your Ace duece...not a lot of outs maybe but you can't argue with that if you only have 1 BB left.
