Every time I play in a tourney and I make the final table and have the most chips, everyone looks at me like I have to call everyone's all-in's because it wouldn't hurt me that much. I'm like, just cause I have the most chips doesn't mean I'm gonna start making stupid calls and double everybody up, lol.
They think it's like an unwritten poker rule or something.

I've seen that crap before. They're hoping that the chip leader will play loose, get their ass kicked on an all-in, double-up the player, and even out the chip count on the table a little. I saw that shit happen a lot playing in a league but very rarely online. Whenever I'm the chip leader, I just tighten up my play and tell the bullies to eat a dick. :-)
Granted, I will call, (even w/ a mediocre pocket), if there's 1 person that goes all-in w/ less than a few blinds left, and everyone else folds. Hell, I may even do it if there are 2 all-ins.
