28k $150 buyin on 'tilt.
I'm not sure it was the right call pre flop, was gonna lay it down, but decided I'd see a flop.

Full Tilt Poker Game #2236012577: $28,000 Guarantee (16051111), Table 19 - 25/50 - No Limit Hold'em - 15:45:06 ET - 2007/04/18
Seat 1: blizair (3,475)
Seat 2: 4thumbs (1,702)
Seat 3: Hava Nagila (1,625)
Seat 4: GimmeDa1time (2,565)
Seat 5: Martello Tower (4,410)
Seat 6: blackmetalhead (3,125)
Seat 7: Yriel (6,243)
Seat 8: theone111 (4,515)
Seat 9: ecolico (1,685)
ecolico posts the small blind of 25
blizair posts the big blind of 50
The button is in seat #8
*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to Yriel [Ah ]
4thumbs folds
Hava Nagila folds
GimmeDa1time folds
Martello Tower raises to 125
blackmetalhead folds
Yriel calls 125
theone111 has 15 seconds left to act
theone111 calls 125
ecolico folds
blizair folds
*** FLOP *** [ ]
Martello Tower bets 450

What do you do here?

I decided to just call; I didn't want to put too much of my stack at risk.

Yriel calls 450
theone111 raises to 2,200
Martello Tower folds

now what?

I figure I's all in or fold, but decided to fold since I didn't want to risk most of my stack on a coin flip. In a cash game, I think I'd generally push. Since it was a tourney, I decided to fold and wait for a better spot.

Yriel has 15 seconds left to act
Yriel folds
Uncalled bet of 1,750 returned to theone111
theone111 mucks
theone111 wins the pot (1,800)
*** SUMMARY ***
Total pot 1,800 | Rake 0
Board: [ ]
Seat 1: blizair (big blind) folded before the Flop
Seat 2: 4thumbs didn't bet (folded)
Seat 3: Hava Nagila didn't bet (folded)
Seat 4: GimmeDa1time didn't bet (folded)
Seat 5: Martello Tower folded on the Flop
Seat 6: blackmetalhead didn't bet (folded)
Seat 7: Yriel folded on the Flop
Seat 8: theone111 (button) collected (1,800), mucked
Seat 9: ecolico (small blind) folded before the Flop

What do people think of the way I played the hand? I got a pretty bad outcome in that I put in 450 on a draw and didn't even get to see anymore cards, but I'm not sure I did much wrong.

I dont mind the call preflop, plenty of implied odds esp in a multiway pot. However, when the guy bets 450 into a pot of roughly the same, i am going to go away. As always, position is power and as you are not last to act, you cannot call. For my money shover has QQQ or JJJ and you cannot call.
