From a 10-man Double-or-Nothing SnG on Stars:

Villain is loose-aggressive.  You figure to be worst-case in a coin flip scenario, best case have villain clutching to a 3-outer.

You're probably ahead aren't you but I'd fold it.

At a Double or Nothing game the case for folding is stronger I think.
Only one player to exit the game and the low stacks both pay the blinds before you do.

Yup, exactly my thinking.

I folded, villain didn't show, and that was that.

The thing with these SnGs is they are more like super-satellites than anything else - and the rule of super-satellite bubble play is..don't screw yourself over.  There is no need to get the top number of chips, all you want is to survive.

Alright, let's stir this topic up a bit.  What do you do if this is a regular SnG?

Gotta agree with 7...while you may be ahead, the DoN game in question and the two shorter stacks on the bubble make the fold the obvious choice!

Are you referring to the DoN scenario, or the regular SnG scenario?
