    Default What's our play here?

    Final table of a tourney, four people paid off, nine left.

    I get dealt QQ on the button, limps round to the cutoff, who raises from the BB of 200 to 1,000. I reraise with a stack of 80k to 4,500. BB calls, raiser calls.

    Flop comes 8 5 2 rainbow, BB goes all in for his remaining 7k, initial raiser goes all in, 40k or so. I have 75k.

    Push?
    Fold?

    This seems unbelievable, are you sure about stack sizes? Final table of a tournament and you have a 400bb stack?
    Have to get away from QQ here for 200bb stack which is what the deeper villain has.

    There is no way the BB is only 200 at an MTT this size. Not only unbelievable but illogical.

    Edit: At the FT that it, when you have earned this large of a stack.

    9 left, 4 payout, BB 200, they have to be talking a 18 player MT Sng. I have to assume the chipstacks off by ????? 10 fold.

    With that assumption, BB is A 2 chasing a miracle, CO could have hit trips but his initial raise indicates PP of about 77 thru TT. Push all in.

    Yea, willjim is right, this would be a 18plyr, 2 table SnG paying out 4... your chip stacks are just way off. I think I would push as well. CO likely has 99 or TT (lets hope not 88), big blind has hit the board with something.
