    Default was this a dumb move?

    blinds 300/600. I just got moved to this table.

    folded to the CO. CO (10k stack) raises to 1800, im on the button A10 suited with 14k in chips. I reraise all in and he calls with AK and i lose. Generally i play very tight in tourneys, but then the blinds and antes eat me up. But every time i move in with a marginal hand i seem to run into a monster. Any advice?

    id say shit happens as his raise looks like a standard steal but the problem is that ur only just sat down and maybe he hasnt played a hand in the last 5 orbits.

    i was looking forward to coming in here and just posting "YES, YES IT WAS DUMB" but im not sure i can.

    it's alright. i would have played it a little tighter with 15.5 m left. probably would have waited for my m to drop to like 6 before doing a move like that. you still have a decent stack.

    I probably make the same play, stack sizes are perfect for FE since his 17BBs is still a raise/foldable stack.
