    Unless he was playing AKs, it's unlikely he flopped a flush. More likely is he has a high pocket pair, one of which is a spade, giving him an overpair with the flush draw. Since he pushed all-in, that makes it more likely he doesn't have the flush, since AKs would want some callers. Even if he did flop a flush, you still have a good chance for the board to pair. In the worst case scenario where he flopped the flush and your set doesn't turn in to a boat, you'll still have $45k in chips. I'd call in a heartbeat.

    QhQs was his hand

    Turn = As .. riv = no help

    Only reason I even questioned it was the pay out structure ,as in all 45 get same seat.. In a normal MTT ..I would never even Question the call..

    Thanks for the posts

    btw i did get top 45 .. blinds of 10000/20000.. I finished w/ 851 chips
