Its not me, but was this guy wrong to push here, or is this a fairly standard but questionable move. I just wouldnt want to risk my whole tournie on a pair of nines, especially with the blinds so low, at best he is going to be 50-50.
Also, is the fact that tournies are avaiable to play as soon as you get kncked out promoting this type of play?? If you had to wait half an hour or a couple of days to play again, would you make this sort of move?
