q9 is right on the edge, and with blinds so high he could only hold out anouther 3-4 rounds befor losing. But from the BB q9 can be dropped to a raise, if he relly wanted to play it then fine, but why not wait to see a flop he could make a move on, as said by someone else the chip leader looked like he wanted action unlike the outher AIs. People seam to forget how quick a chip stack can move at thes blinds, 2 hands and chip leader becomes almost bust....so worth playing right. q9 is not a AI hand in this situation, however bless9 felt he was getting bullied and if so then q9 is a reasonable hand to shove with. Some people would even say any 2 cards here. With the blinds as high as they were then it was always going to be luck that ended this game.

F*ck I cant help it, but I have to say it out lol --
I see so much criticism here about how bad this push was. Actually it wasnt.
And for the players who think it was so bad - maybe this is the reason you are still playing freerolls and never make it to big money? Analyze the hand correctly before shouting out "sick" "sick" "sick" and that Q9 push was donk move.

i have to agree with dude its a wind up i cant come up with any situation where i would be allin with q9 preflop or on that flop at that stage in any tourney unless i had settled for second place and decided to risk a terrible bluff why is there always some one in the pot like this guy the sites do love em and dont they reward them!!!!
