Thanks, Steve-O for your reply. I considered this play, as you suggested, a calculated risk. I figured that if I did loose those 1100 chips I would still not be in dire straights. With the blinds as small as they were, I figured I would still have time to rebuild if I did loose. On the other hand, if I did suck out the pot, then I would have a stack that would allow me to play fast and see more flops, which definately gives me an edge.
