NL Holdem Tourny, 110 players starting with 5000 in chips, top 10 get paid, down to last 3 tables (9 per table), blinds 500-1000 with 100 ante, I have 10000 and am third to speak. First two players fold, I have KdJd and raise to 4000. All fold to cutoff who raises allin with 18000. Fold back to me. Cutoff is good, solid, aggressive player. I feel I am behind (perhaps way behind) but call all in mainly because of the pot odds and also a small glimmering hope that he as TT or 99. He turns over AA and wins the hand and I am out.
Was my initial raise given my stack size with this hand in this position correct?
Was my call of the buttons reraise correct under the circumstances? (I completely did not think that he had also to be concerned with the players behind him to make this reraise thus increasing the chances that he had a premium hand).
