Message: [QUOTE="fundiver199, post: 6956645, member: 397965"] The thing is, a tournament life or "live to fight another day" has no value in itself, unless you have a big edge on the field, or payjumps are near, so that 2M chips are not nearly twice as valuable as 1M chips. Here presumably neither of this was the case. It was deep in a $33 MTT, where the average player is likely pretty competent, and with 180 left the big payjumps dont begin, until another 90% of the field is gone. Which mean, that Hero is going to need not just one but more likely 3 dubble ups to make it there. I plugged the situation into GTO Wizard selecting 60BB stacks, since this was the effective stack. And while the solver does call QQ a small percentage of the time, it 5-bet jam QQ far more often. AA is actually called way more often than QQ, and the obvious reason is, the hand needs less protection, and its still very easy to get the chips in postflop. [/QUOTE]
