Doubling up the size of your chip stack is always nice for position in a tournament, but I don't know if it is ever really necessary.

The closest I can think of is if you are extremely low on chips (like 4 Big Blinds or less), so that the pot odds justify you going All-In for your remaining stack on any two cards. Even here, we still may fold if on the stone bubble, or just before an important pay jump. Otherwise, might as well stick it All-In and if you double up, then great! :D

Thank you for the information. I just learned from reading Phoenix Wrights post. I totally agree and concur with the thoughts of this individual. Thanks card chat for the opportunity.

when you are left with chips less than 15-20 bb, then you can go all-in with almost any ace or average pair, trying to double, but that's just my opinion :)
