It has been commented in previous posts that your only options pre flop were to fold or push all in.

This is basic poker strategy in this situation.

If you (or anyone else) is serious about playing any tournament then you should read the books 'HARRINGTON ON HOLD EM' volumes 1 and 2 by Dan Harrington.

These books are basically the bible of NL Holdem tournament play and the strategies/theories discussed are in the arsenal of every good poker player.

The books may cost £10-20 (there is also a 3rd in the series now) but its some of the best money I have ever spent and these books have probably made me £thousands.
