    Default Should I have called?

    2nd blind level in a MTT. Should I have called the all in? I would have won, but it made more sense to me to wait. No good reads at this point..

    Full Tilt Poker
    No Limit Holdem Tournament
    Blinds: t20/t40
    8 players
    Converter

    Stack sizes:
    Hero: t1370

    MP1: t1970
    MP2: t2520
    CO: t2960
    Button: t1395
    SB: t1605
    BB: t1710

    Pre-flop: (8 players) Hero is UTG with
    Hero raises to t200, 3 folds, CO calls t200 (pot was t260), Button calls t200 (pot was t460), SB raises all-in t1605, BB folds, Hero folds, CO calls t1405 (pot was t2245), Button calls all-in t1195.

    Flop: (t4845, 1 player + 2 all-in - Main pot: t4425, Sidepot 1: t420)


    Turn: (t4845, 1 player + 2 all-in - Main pot: t4425, Sidepot 1: t420)


    River: (t4845, 1 player + 2 all-in - Main pot: t4425, Sidepot 1: t420)


    Results:
    Final pot: t4845
    CO showed 9d Qd

    Yeah. Good fold. If you folded, you don't need to be told why it was the right move. Pretty advanced from the shit I've seen recently.

    Thx, good to hear. I just despise folding what turns out to be the winning hand.

    One who never folds the winning hand is either clairvoiant or doing something wrong.

    Good fold, i dont think 2ppl allin with cards that can't beat A-Q..would be the best analysis of the situation

    thats why you dont want to be results-oriented... AQ is a horrible holding against that much action... in fact i had a situation like this i folded AK in a tournament to an allin-fest in front of me... i only play AA or KK here

    Very true. Best to lay it down and forget what you had. Easier said than done though.
