wow, your play here explains a lot
also sometimes when i see your screenname i read it as "ham [censored]" and i'm like "WTF, that's racialist!"

That essentially means that you are racialist :-O.
Ham - It's a $5 tourney, why are you respecting your opponents so much? Also, a little math here helps if you are really that unsure. This bet is, more than anything else, a "protector" bet, meaning, your opponent could very well have 77, 1010 (which he goes AI with), A9 (also might go AI with it). Or it's a "I don't know what to do with AK/AQ" bet, another good reason to AI.
Against a range of hands he goes AI with, A9, 1010+, 88, 99, 44, you are 40/60. With 520 in the pot, plus FE you have against AK/AQ/77, this looks like an easy push. If you were against a better opponent who doesn't stack off with 1010 or A9 here (or a LAG who will fire again with AK/AQ), you can just call. But, here, I think pushing is best.
