  2. You 3Bet the short stack, looks like you are making an isolation raise (and coldhand is correct but you have a decent hand).

    Coldhand 4Bet all-in and has you covered.

    At best you are probably racing vs. AK or AQ for your tournament life for the side pot of 5640 if you call. You're in a tough spot with no fold equity.

    Like you say, you still have a tournament life if you fold. It's way early to go bust.

    I like the fold in this spot. You didn't say anything about what coldhand has done since you and he were together at the table.
  3. Over the third raise, it's hard to like TT here, even when you suspect this play is coming in an effort to break up what might well be an isolation play. As the play went, dump your hand in favour of a better spot.

    After the short stack opened, I'd have much preferred moving in, given your stack size, to the smallish reraise-there are too many flops you're going to dislike with TT.
