Blinds 15/30, 10 players
MP after 2 limpers I make it 150 and the player to my left shoots all in with 730. No read.

I mucked this after some thought. Was I playing too tight? Or was the possible coinflip or domination not worth the call.

With no read I lay down QQ early in the tourney to an all-in RR. You know the likely holdings that you don't want to see here and experience tells me that those holdings are probable even at the $11-$33 tables. On the other hand, you are likely to see AJs, ATs, and all PP's JJ through 77 make this play at the $11-$33 tables, but it is not worth the risk to make the call when you are only 2:1 favorite against AJs or ATs (coupled with the fact that you could easily be a 4:1 dog when the AA or KK get turned over).

I should add that this was a 50+5

I also went on to take third, but I got lucky on some all ins later on.
