    Don't limp in with 13 big blinds left? :P RandomDiv's limp is even worse... Ric0z's raise there is pretty bad too, raise needs to be maybe 2100-2400 minimum IMO, 900 to call to make a pot of 4200 is giving any two cards the right price to call and see a flop.

    After that, pretty standard play, unlucky.

    Shove/fold pre, NEVER limp, I prefer fold as he can't limp fold that stack like 6 bigs.

    Fold to raise from Ric but shud never have option as u shud be all in or fold by here.

    ya biggest error here is limping in with 13 big blinds its shove or fold these stages i would of folded k 8 suited and picked a better spot

    I think you must know limping with K8 is bad?

    Would you limp behind with Ks8h?  Only 2% more.

    I just dont get it.  As stands you wind up with a flop you cant get away from.  But would a K or 8 high flop have been any better?

    Tournament poker, dont limp.  It makes no sense.  Your playing hit to play, never knowing if what you hit is strong enough.  Being pot stuck.

    Agree with everyone else. U just cant limp with these hands at this stage of a tourney. it just makes no sense. shove or get out of the way. if u had done that, who knows what could of happened, u might of even won the tourney, but u gave urself no chance of doing anything with your pre-flop play.

    Just to add tho, oppo played it just as bad also, he prob should of shoved, and u could have folded that way.

    The only time i would ever think about limping at this stage is wiv aces or kings, and u might be able to extract more value from ur hand, but even then its player dependant.
