Player is rather aggressive and also had someone come to the table and started calling him a donk from a different tournie! lol.

Is this river 2nd prize or has it got you in deep trouble? Your pos is 27/290.... top 225 pay, nothing worth winning until final table typically.

He's either full of it or he flopped a flush imo. I think i would have to call.

The way he played that hand is typical of someone with a made flush - when the A appears on the river he hopes you've hit and goes all-in to get all your chips. Quite a good bluff really. I'd have folded.

Preflop, I don't like to limp with a dangerous hand like  Ad Th. I'll either raise to steal the blinds or fold.

As its more than likely he's risking his tournament life with a hand bigger than Ace high.
And unless you think he's on a pure bluff, you cannot call with those pot odds and 1 card to come.

The thing is imo, because you hold the  Ad his betting doesn't make sense. I can't place him on any reasonable hand.

it's a classic miles behind or miles ahead one. if he was aggreesive he may bet or check raise with the made flush though so i'd have to call.

I think you got the wrong end here mate.... I bet the flop and turn, then he shoves on the river when ive hit my card.

Hey im LAG lol.. But i didnt like the limp UTG from short stack so decided to flat call and try and catch a flop (i have the chips) rather than raise and be committed to his shove preflop.

You have the blocker to the nuts, but I still hate ATo for an MP pre-flop limp at any stage of the game. Nice call btw, but a lot of info on villain would be required before I made a similar call.
