wrong call because he was low stack and the only time he would move all in is when he have a hand or ace up, queen 9 wasnt good enough to call

There's a lot to think about and there is a lot that you didn't tell us, like for example what was his style of play, and how many times were you raising the minimum raise preflop. But anyways, not knowing anything else, I think you made a bad call. Even if they were connected, and suited, he reraised you all in!! So in the worst case scenario he has something like K8 maybe, but more likely an ace, and in the worst case a pair. To all these hands you were an underdog. Now if you guys got to see

IMHO, no. Reason(s) being are that if he's all in w/ any A-x, K-x, any pair, or a Queen w/ a better kicker then you are already an underdog. Even if you aren't an underdog going into it, if he hits anything & you lose then you are only left w/ 5x the BB. Had you folded you would've still had 53K, leaving you w/ the chip lead & more than enough to see a few hands. Your cards being suited doesn't add enough value to the hand to put your tournament life on it. Also, the cards needed to make your st

no he was saying he at least had an ace or pocket pairs. u lost oh well you had to play good to get second gg.

I think the min raise you made allows you to get away from the hand there. that way you dont have to worry about doubling him up to the lead. -swan

After a min raise from you I dunno if it's the right call. But I'm an idiot and get myself into coin flip situations with small pairs.

Since you had him covered almost 2/1,yes I think you made the right call.
Just seems like once the downward spiral starts its hard to recover.Odds are even if you had not made that call the same cards would have hit with the same outcome...just would have taken longer.That's the nature of heads up...skill goes away and luck sits in.

Not sure if this is a serious question..........Why play a large pot pre-flop with marginal (junk) holdings?

I think a call with your hand was sloppy. Not many outs withouut a heart landing on the flop. and low kicker. Suited connectors make for a better chance on a bet like that. However who knows when you might feel lucky. Me, I try to stick with a plan to get to the final when it really counts.

In hindsight it was a bad call. If you had won, you would not be questioning your play in the first place. Personally, I think you were lucky that the flop was as kind to you as it was. As the underdog, you paid the statistically likely price...

Many consider a better set of pockets, AJ suited to be a bad all-in hand. There are just too many better pockets that will most likely beat AJ suited.

I would say bad call on this one. I think it would be a better or at least an understandable call, although still a losing one, if it had been AFTER the flop. The flop did hit u pretty good, but calling a short-stack's all-in with Q9 suited, all else being equal, and not knowing any more info about the situation, is a fold.

HI RIZZ AGAIN
