Final table of a £20 f/o with £1k added. Top 7 getting paid, though 3x£20 savers have been agreed. Currently 8 left, which there has been for about an hour and a bit now.

Blinds are 6000/12000-1000 with an average of ~70k.

Villain one (who has been one of the more active players at the table) shoves for about 40k.

Villain two (who has been one of the tighter players at the table, except for an earlier call with KJ) reshoves for about 70k. This concerns us, we think he's pretty much got it here.

We're in the small blind and have 6k invested of our 11k stack. We look down at  . It's pretty obviously behind here given the action. And there's still the big blind to act after us. Should we fold hoping for the bubble to burst and then try and get our stack in first in a future hand?

How the f**k have you managed to get so short?

Unless you've completely messed up the HH or it's just a big level of some sort then of course you have to call.

You have 5k left if you pass and you're thinking about "getting it in first" with the blinds at 6k/12k?

Erm....... doesn't quite work mate.

Actually scrap everything I've just said. I think it's a level. Yes I'm convinced it must be a level.

Either that or can you please post the correct blinds / stacks.

Thanks.

we'll have 5k left and antes are 1,000?

Folding is only an option if 7th gets a lot more than £20 - unless Paul the Psychic Octopus says we're getting AA next hand

Think I've figured it out.

CF actually has 110k not 11k. Yes that must be the mistake.

I can't see what else it could be.

To be honest your chips should've been in the middle befoe you even looked.

When you got round to looking you should've felt a warm glow inside when you realised you actually had a hand that could fair quite nicely in a 3 way pot with about 10 to 1 pot odds.

I've just read the HH again. You say you've been on the bubble for over an hour with stacks this short!?!?!?

How the hell has that happened and why didn't someone realise what was happening and take advantage?

Or have you just come back from a 55 minute break?
