Default Did I do the right thing?

(sorry...history converter does not work with PKR, I know its a pain to read)

I won the tournament, but did I do the right thing at the end?
I had a huge stack of 8000 against 1000...
Flopped middle pair, opponent goes all-in, I call.

Should I have called? I called the middle pair cause I had a much bigger stack (and I admit I got a bit bored!)


It was a sit n go 6 seater with $10 buy in...if I recall...


Game Type: Hold'em
Limit Type: No Limit
Table Type: Tournament
Money Type: TOURNAMENT CHIPS

Blinds are now $75/$150
Button is at seat 3
Seat 3: Nicko82 - $8015
Seat 6: lyndorx - $985
Moving Button to seat 6

lyndorx posts small blind ($75)
Nicko82 posts big blind ($150)
Shuffling Deck
Dealing Cards

Dealing [8d Tc] to Nicko82
lyndorx calls $150
Nicko82 checks
Dealing Flop [5d Kc 8h]

Nicko82 bets $150
lyndorx raises to $835 (all-in)
Nicko82 calls $835

Nicko82 shows [8d Tc]
lyndorx shows [Ad 3d]

Dealing Turn [Jh]
Dealing River [5h]

lyndorx has One Pair: 5s
Nicko82 has Two Pairs: 8s, 5s
Nicko82 wins $1970 with: Two Pairs: 8s, 5s

Seat 3: Nicko82 - $9000
Seat 6: lyndorx - $0

Is that because of the difference in stack? Don't you give him a chance to make a come-back like that? (I'm asking cause I've done a couple of come-backs like that before myself...so I'm cautious)

Shove preflop. You have an 8:1 chiplead you can put him in with practically any two cards.

As played, definite call.
