    Okay This is a hand i encountered in the Final Table of the 10k turbo tournament on Fulltilt. Mind you my BR was under 100$ and advancing from 6th to 5th was also a 500$ jump. I am curious to know if you all would make this call in hopes of getting to chips to work with or pick a better spot. Thanks

    With the dead money in the pot, in a turbo structure, yeah, you have to call here. Unlucky flip.

    If the money means that much to you...you're playing out of your bankroll (you probably already knew this).

    Yep, Gaps is (always ??) right... call because of the structure.
    If the money matter that much because of your BR you can flop even if it is not the right move... depends on the other shorty style and table dynamic BUT winning that flip give u 15BB+ and the 2nd chip pos....

    GG for your deep run
