Default Calling a min raise in BB with KQ

I probably shoul have folded pre flop. I think I got lucky not catching any part of the flop or I could have been busto.
What do you guys think?
Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (4 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

UTG (t950)
Button (t4540)
SB (t4310)
Hero (t2060)

Preflop: Hero is BB with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t200</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls t100.
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets t200</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: t450

flop was [2d 3d 8c]

I think calling and folding are equally good here.

i agree with calling preflop. if you hit top pair on the flop be prepared to get it all in.

this is way bad. i don't want to get all in on a flop with TPGK with a super shorty in there and us with decent chips. i like a fold pf.

^^Shortie isn't super short - he still has 9.5BB.

These button minraises are just annoying, but it's really no big deal to fold - you don't want to play a mediocre hand out of position against a guy who has enough chips to bully you, especially when he may have you dominated for huge reverse implied odds if you hit.
