in that case, it's an easy fold, for reasons mentioned above. if you go all-in, you are probably at *best* a 30% favorite to win the pot... and youre probably a lot worse off than that since the kind of hand it takes to call an all-in (and another all-in on top) like that is probably AA, KK, QQ, or AK. those hands have you dominated. so youre probably looking at much worse odds.
 
by simply not playing, you automatically win money. that's a no brainer.
 
in the other situation (ie, by calling you still have a guaranteed 2000 chips left), it's also an easy decision, with the opposite outcome. you are still guaranteed 3rd, whether you play the hand or not. in order to get better than third place, you either need more chips or a LOT of luck doubling on the big stack. this is the perfect time to get all your money in and cross your fingers. if you win, youre in good shape to get 2nd or 1st. if you lose, you still get a guaranteed third. no lose situation.
