Early in the $10r

The reshover's really aggressive preflop. The original raiser is pretty new to the table

During rebuy period seems standard.

Blinds are 400/800. It's about an hour and a half after the rebuy period.

Are you hoping original raiser folds and you are 40:60 with the dead money or are you hoping he calls and you have over 33% equity?
I don't understand the play at all.

I'm only getting 3:2 on the call, but calling gives the original raiser ~3:1, so my 8k call is to win 18k+, not 12k.

I gave them both the top 40% of hands on Pokerstove which seems over generous and we don't get anymore than 25% pot equity.

We are putting 8k in to win 18k

.75 x -8k
+ .25 x +18k

= -1.5k expectation

Clearly it's -cEV
Does the EV of having a big stack override the -cEV and the risk of busting out the tourney?

Obviously you are a better tourny player than me, I'm trying to learn why this play isn't bad.
