precisely because the blinds are so low is why i think calling is fine. a 1/3 size dent to your stack here doesn't affect your future play much, you start feeling some pressure a little earlier, but i would think that would be it. if you win you have considerable leverage as a big stack and i feel that kind of opportunity is well worth this particular gamble. this call is so marginal, so neutral ev, that i think chance to chip up early into the tournament makes calling the correct decision, though aq would be the lowest hand i would do this with, and even then, not all of the time.
