Default Shorthanded - call the all in?

I've been lurking here a while, after reading 4 books from 2+2 publishing. Figured I'd take advantage of the brainpower on these forums to refine my game.

No Limit Hold'em Sit and Go $5 +.50


Hero is at seat 0 with 7090.
Villan is at seat 5 with 6175.
SB is at seat 6 with 1735.
The button is at seat 5.

SB posts the small blind of 20.
Hero posts the big blind of 40.

Hero: Qh Ad
Villan: -- --
jakeylove: -- --

Pre-flop:

Villan raises to 140. jakeylove folds. sarah
in mass re-raises to 340. Villan calls.

Flop (board: Ah Ts 6s):

Hero bets 700. Villan goes all-in for
5835. Hero ?????

So my question is should I call or not. so far in this SnG I've knocked out 6 players to build my stack. I do not have much of a read on the Villan, Seems like a TAG, but I'm not sure. I have only crossed paths with him 2x and won both without a showdown. This is his first all-in raise of the tournament. He has called them in the past.

Please be descriptive! saying "call" or "fold" without a reason doesn't do anyone any good.
thanks

Assuming this was a 9 man SnG - getting to 3 handed at 20/40 blinds is crazy.

You have tons of time to get a more favorable situation. I'd probably pass on putting in 150BB more with top pair second kicker.

I tired 4 converters, with none of them working... should have mentioned that.

I'm pulling this directly from the Hand history of the site, and all the converters listed UB as a valid source. Am I supposed to pull the hand history from somewhere else?

i cant really tell whats going on with this hand, but im going to assume you have AQ, something happened preflop, and now youve flopped TPGK on a reasonably good flop at a 5 dollar buy in sit and go.


im gonna have to say dont fold to any bet (or go all in, in other words)

This http://www.neildewhurst.com/hand-converter/ is by far the best converter though it's a bit slow. And you must save the setting first (remember to choose the "show stacks" option).

Also it might be helpful to add the buy-in in the title of the post.
