Should I have called this?

It just didn't add up and I didn't know what to think so I folded

If thats the case then you have to fold as you can not justify any call, and this comes from some one who has just missed out on a ticket for the Irish Open, with expenses, to a  , I had  we both hit a ace and he hit his four, but then I felt he was pushing and it was heads up. Boy did the cat fly across the room.

Very unlucky Squid, (and the cat).

I can't stand cats, but was thinking of getting one solely for this purpose.

It was the final table and for the lowly likes of me, the pay scale was quite steep.   We'd been playing for ages and even 12th only got $80, 9th got about $170 then it was up to just over $2.1k for 1st - that's a nice pay pay day in the $8 games

The guy had been playing tight and the all in preflop was very out of character for him.  The hands he'd ended up showing down had been reasonable hands and he hadn't been caught with mince that I'd seen.  I really didn't know what to put him on.  Had he raised in the same position say 2-4xBB, I'd have had a range to put him on, but all in for 455k for the sake of stealing 28kish in blinds and antes?  It just didn't add up and I didn't know what to think so I folded as I didn't want to lose my nice stack on what could have been anything.

i dont think it s a bad fold,he goes all in in ep when he is under no pressure to make a move,it would be a bad move with ace queen i think,he could have aces but it looks like queens or kings to me, dont think he has ace queen, so its a race, lots of advice ive read seems to think its ok to throw your ace king away if you think its a race and you have no need to gamble .kings or aces your in bad shape,if the bb where a lot bigger or he had a smaller stack i would call i would of thought twice about calling here myself but its not a bad call i think you would need to get lucky

AQ is about 1000 times more likely than AA/KK

boldie, I still picked up a $1000 so it wasnt a 50p game, what really gets me is he if makes that sort of move then its a waste of a ticket.
