You almost certainly have to call in that position, you have raised a previously unraised pot (and since i dont know what your action was like prior to this hand) i can only assume that the big-blind assumes ur stealing and powers over the top of you. Even if he does wake up with a hand its unlikly to be AA or KK, because shoving with those hands has no inherent value; it basically kills his action. And then at worst you are coin-flipping. I think that if you are serious about playing the tourny then its always a call. (in that situation).

BB prob dont think you are stealing raising from SB but this is a snap call anyway as everybody already know (except for maybe OP that still seems to think his play was fine).

fwiw a fold might have been ok if your stack was 8-12k but not now when it was 4k.

This is really funny. First of all, just listen to the advice, which is what you asked for.

7. if he had AK too which is the more likely. he had the better position and with same cards the position has to win

[/ QUOTE ]
Position means nothing when there is no further action. You are freerolling versus AKo, which is significant with that much money in.

and one more thing. i do like better outplay my opponents than decide a tournament in a preflop battle.

That point is really funny. Lol.

AK is not a hand what u cant fold ever. But obv i made a bad lay down, but at least i can lay down AK

[/ QUOTE ]

If the issue is being able to fold AK preflop, this belongs in SSMTT. I think you will get a friendlier reception if you post there, regardless of buyin.
