1$ buyin tournament, 5/10 players left. First 3 places payed.

Blinds 100/200

Im second with 3500 chips.
I'm dealt 

Shortstacked player goes allin for 360, I raise it to 720.

Then chip leader, very tight player, who has never in this tournament went allin, goes allin for 6000 chips. Everyone else fold and now it's up to me. I'm afraid he has KK or AA, and I can go out just like that. But if I fold, Im still 2nd with good chances of getting some money. So I folded.

shortstacked player had 

Chip leader had     ...

And another queen came on the flop...

Was that a bad fold?

I think I'd be inclined to flat call for deception, or shove over the top...

the shove takes away the risk of being outplayed post flop and mabe deters CL from his move

The flat call does at least save you 360 chips if CL still shoves

on balance, I'm pushing over the top here.

Pretty nasty spot this.

Your ISO raise is fine, given this is the bubble and chip leader is tight the other players stacks are v important here. I hate to say it but I think this is a pass 5 handed, given your read.

Yep he is trying to set a record for the most inane and useless first 300 posts in blonde history. I can't think why.
