Playing The Bubble Going Out 10th In MTT With QQ
HI ALL
I was playing a 180 players MTT and was down to 10 players. I had been card dead and was sitting on 5900 and the blinds were 300 – 600 with a 50 anty. I wanted to just sit till the final table and increase my pay out but you can not be a punk and lay down good hands here. I was on the big blind I was delt 
The button raised to 1800 (he had 59k) and I pushed all in. I had seen that player steal blinds before with crap so I was farly certin I was ahead. When the cards were turned over he had . Needles to say he hit an ace on the river and I was out. Now all that being said I think I should have folded and waited for the final table on the other hand you can not just lay that down could I have called pre flop then shoved the flop? What do you think I would love any input form any body.
I was making a training video so once it is ready I will post a link.

If your read was that he pushed with marginal hands to steal blinds then the all-in is as good a move as any other I think.
