the point is not to be results oriented, you made the right decision, he hit a 3 outer it can happen even if you have aces, and your not folding aces!

I wasn"t being results oriented - I said fold in the first instance before the result was known. OK by calling, we are an 80% favourite, but that"s irrelevant - against ATC we were much less than that, and as I said before I would prefer to be the one shoving here to give me an additional chance to win the hand.... I think calling in this spot against ATC for your tourney is not always the best move - so long as stacks still have enough play left in them so that you can continue to rape and pillage the blinds of the guys on your left. If we have a run on the rest of the table, lets just avoid confrontation with the big stack maniac, and crush the rest of the table to a point where said confrontation comes headsup.

know wat u mean but its hard to crush when the big stack is shoving every other hand. This is not a spot we can fold if we are shotting ftw!

if you fold AQ to this guy then you aren"t the one raping and pillaging (he is) and you HAVE to steal blinds just to maintain stack with rising blinds. At some point the guys who are short will have to take action and/or wake up with a hand.
call if you like winning money. Simple imo - you shouldn"t turn down huge +EV spots like this, unless you like min-cashes

/\ Call As above /\
Unless your aged 65 and want to limp into the third with the other two maniacs picking on you ;D
A 7 was a good flip for you (just unlucky this time)
