Final Pot: t2924
Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
Hero has Kd 4s (high card, ace).
Button has Kc Th (one pair, tens).
Outcome: Button wins t2924. </font>

Me and villain both had stacks considerably less than the other three players, and the blinds were pretty high compared to our stacks. I wasn't totally sure about how he played preflop, but I had seen him showdown some very weak starting hands. I figured he would go all in here with at least any two cards nine or higher, especially since the big blind was not playing many hands. And even if I lost the hand I would still have 173 chips left, not much but better than nothing. But I would like to know from an equity standpoint whehter playing the hand was correct.

Don't you have SNG-wiz?
Even if he pushes 100%, which I doubt and the BB only calls with AQ+, TT+ which I doubt also, you still need K5+ to make it (slightly) +ev.
