Just started playing MTTs, and generally I fold in places like this but after reading some posts here a fold seems pretty weakish.

Villian has been playing pretty solid poker, but I've seen him make some moves. The table has been very tight and I've stolen the blinds in the last couple of orbits. There was one time when I got a couple callers when stealing, but I took the pot down with a c-bet.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (8 handed) internettexasholdem.com

Hero (t6082)
Button (t7960)

BB (t8680)
UTG (t6572)
UTG+1 (t3600)
MP1 (t14454)
MP2 (t3521)

Preflop: Hero is CO with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
2 folds, MP1 calls t200, 1 fold, Hero raises to t800, 3 folds, MP1 calls t600.

Flop: (t1900) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 players)
MP1 checks, Hero bets t1000, MP1 raises to t5200, Hero raises to t5282, MP1 calls t82.

Final Pot: t12464

What is your reasoning for throwing your whole stack away reraising all in with no pair against a guy who you say had been playing pretty solid poker?

You're calling off all of your chips getting less than 2:1 with outs that may or may not be good. If the villain has a set you have 9 heart outs. If the villain has the nut flush draw plus a pair you have 3 queen outs. Best case is that the villain has j9 or 67 and only has straight outs against you. I think you need to let this go.

I dislike making this call.

Now, if you had the ace of hearts rather than a queen of hearts, then a call would be reasonable because you have a draw to the nuts. For all you know, you could be drawing dead right now to a flopped flush.

You put out a raise PF, c-bet and faced resistance on a coordinated board. I fold because I still have some chips to work with and am not pot committed.

NIce pf raise,

Nice Flop bet,

Nice fold to the massive flop raise, indicating you are horribly outclassed in this hand and have almost no chance of winning it
