Hi guys
With my present stack i am more or less confortable but i need more chips to make it
UTG was playing solid. His EP PFR is 16% (31 hands). MP is gambler fish. Odds are exactly 2:1 .
So if i call my chances to make it through the satellite are good but not definitive ; if i lose i lose 35% of my stack. Not a disaster but it reduces my room to make plays...should ˇi risk or preserve my chips and wait for a better spot? Is there any rule of thumb as how to approach these situations?
