Is this a good call? Fuel and I were practically even in chips. In fact, he had me covered by a few hundred chips. So, should I fold here with 99, an all-in and a jam to isolate? I felt it was the kind of situation where I was probably going to be a coinflip. Win the hand and I'm 2nd in chips. Lose, go home, but $10.20 richer. Or $0.80 more broke. However you want to look at it.
Thanks again to Mookie for hosting, BDR for constant entertainment, Surflexus for being there every step of the way, and also PokerEnthusiast and InstantTragedy. I told you 3 the pick would not be in vain!
So here's to the TOC and hopefully the WSOP. [If you spell them out it sounds like a cool rap. Add in a gangsta-lean and you're almost at my level.] God I hope this image doesn't do anything funky when I add it in. This is my longest post to date.

Against FUEL that call is alright. he is a LAGTard and should be punished. Congratz on the win.
CONGRATS!
I believe in my ESP(N) of my picks.
Take down the TOC!
Good Luck

Congrats on the big win!
Congrats on the win! I was hoping for a longer HU battle (obviously), but you played a great game at the FT.
See you in the TOC.
calling two all-ins with 99 is not a good idea. especially, if one of them has you covered.
but, it's a $10 tournament.
yeeehaaaw!
congrats on the win.
Congrats on the win and the TOC seat!
Congratulations on the win.
That being said, Smokkee is absolutely correct as far as I am concerned.
Odds are you need to hit your set to win a 3-way pot and you're putting your tournament life at risk when you have relatively little invested. This should be a relatively simple and painless fold under normal circumstances.
If you want to gamble it up to try to become a big stack in a winner-take-all situation -- most of the bloggers really are trying to win the ToC seats; second place is pretty lame -- the call is defensible. Here, you got lucky and hit your set and that catapulted you to a big stack.
Congrats!
