Interesting freeroll at Party last night

[Talking Poker]

Again, your analogy is a bit off. If 50th place paid $10,000 in this example, then the winner would have to take home $200,000 (in your tourney, the winner was paid 20 times as much as 50th place). If that was the case, yeah, I'd push all my chips in for sure.

If all 50 places paid the same (10k in this example, or $50 in your tourney from last night), then this is an easy fold, as would be pretty much every hand after this one.
