Hate being low on chip stack.

Was in a satellite tourny, bout 1200 or so entrants.
We're down to the about 80 left, and im pretty low on the chip count.
I have about 50,000 chips, and the chip-leader on my table is at about 450,000.

I get pocket aces, and was on teh button. There was a round of betting, and almost everyone had called. I raised all-in, not wanting to lose this to a lesser hand cuz of a flop. Everyone starts folding.. except the chip leader. CALL.

he turns his cards over... 3-5 off suit.

Flop comes 3-a-j.

got a set of aces vs his pair of 3s... lookin good.

turn 3

3 threes... vs my 3 aces.. im still lookin good... my outs are... 3 or 5.. im pretty happy..


river 5.

full house.

im out.... FAWK! why the hell does he call with a 3-5?!

I noticed right away. Did this really happen though? Minus the who won part.

I was hung up WAY before that point.....what was the starting chip amount? If the standard $1k, you werent even short stacked w/ 50k, average stack would be 15k. Out of 80 tables, the 450k has 40% of the chips in play....doubtful.

W/ 1200 people, I dont see this being a live tourney and I dont know of an online site to offer $10K starting chips.
