Default $3600 coinflip - poker is a funny game

On Wednesday night I decided to play a mutli on Bodog because they guarentee $25,000 in prize money and they usually only get enough players to cover about $14,000. Buyin is only $32+3. This is the first time that I play bodog in a really long time.
Anyways it's a tourney of 443 and after playing a shortstack for a few hours I somehow sneak into the money. Then I pick up aces twice and double up both times which puts me at about an average stack. Increase that and before I know it, it's down to 3 of us. 1st = $6,200 2nd $3,800 3rd $2,625
Blinds are now 20k - 10k I have about 135k , ASCohen has about 145k and TheRook (or Rook) has about 165k.
Blinds are so huge that stealing the blinds twice in a row makes anyone the chip leader. Bodog does not offer deals, if they did I would agree to a deal here because with the blinds this high, it's all luck.
Anyways, the rook folds on the button and I pick up A5s on the SB. I move allin because the blinds represent about 25% of my stack. The BB (Ascohen) calls me! He turns over KQo and I am a 3-2 favorite! Come on baby, let's win this huge coinflip! Unfortunately he hit a Q and that was ball game and I settle for $2625 - losing a coinflip in that situation sucks.
