    Pocket tens v ace queen is only a 53% favourite preflop,plus late on in tournies most players have a big stack so are usually willing to flip with a hand such as AQ....well played on the cash though.....dont think i would think twice shoving with tens there either,dave

    It's funny, everytime I've been knocked out of a tournement, it's been by a player with a bigger stack than mine. I think you're onto something here!
