    1) I call

    2) I don't raise to 32k at 4/8 blinds, i'd personally open to 20k. saving 12k when I raise fold.

    this.  raising smaller does the same job at these levels.  keep raising 2.2 to 2.5bb at the later stages of the tournie regardless of whether you are doing it with J9o or AKhh.

    once hes gona all in fist pump snap call.

    Snap call imo, if your going for the win pre-flop cant afford to raise 32k then fold no unless you have the sickest read ever! Beaneh is right no need to raise so much 2.5-3 x does the job when blinds are high
