You're raising three times the big blind before the flop and get two players with you, including the player on the button. Flop comes and deals Ac-Js-Ts. First player raises by $20 and you decide to raise to $60. One player folds, button goes all-in. You have $620 left, a call costs you $250. What do you do?

| No-Limit Texas Hold'em, tournament, 5-5 in big blind | 3rd March, 2006 |
  | Game: No-Limit Texas Hold'em, Tournament | Position: Big Blind
| Blinds: $150/$300
|
Only four players remain. You have the shortest stack of $1900 after posting the big blind. You've noticed that the game has become fairly tight. Third seat upsets you with a $800 raise. What are you going to do?
| | Fold: This is definitely an all-in or fold situation, but we still feel that your very low pair is of great disadvantage. A late player raises you and since the table is tight, you're likely up for very tough competition. In fact, you may even be up against a higher pair, although that is highly unlikely.
To sum it up, you still have a chance to make a stance in this tournament, but the fourth lowest pair is probably not going to do the trick.
