I didn't have a good feeling about this hand. Extremely early in the tournament so I don't have a read on the villian. Was I being too loose playing the hand to begin with?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (10 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

MP1 (t1495)
Hero (t1230)
MP3 (t1015)
CO (t1200)
Button (t405)
SB (t1000)
BB (t960)
UTG (t1130)
UTG+1 (t810)
UTG+2 (t755)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with 8/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 8/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
UTG calls t20, UTG+1 calls t20, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP1 calls t20, Hero calls t20, MP3 calls t20, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (t140) T/images/graemlins/spade.gif, K/images/graemlins/club.gif, T/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(7 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, UTG+1 checks, MP1 checks, Hero checks, MP3 checks.

Turn: (t140) 8/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(7 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets t20</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 raises to t65</font>, MP1 folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t200</font>, MP3 folds, SB folds, BB folds, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t335</font>, UTG+1 folds, Hero calls t135.

I don't like the way that he re-reraised here. It means a really really big hand and the only things is that he has KK or KT. So I call instead of just pushing all in.

River: (t875) 6/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero calls t775.

Final Pot: t1650

It was an extremely quick all in on the river and i couldn't decide whether it was a monser or just a massive bluff. Since it was near the start of the tournament and there are lots of idiots left I figure call is the right move. What are your opinions?

I think you definitely have to call the river bet.

Remember, he can think he has the best hand with 10x...and A10 might seem like a monster here.

If he's got K10..he's got K10..but that's pretty much the only hand you can even be remotely scared of...definitely not enough to fold.

Ummm..yeah as I was saying....

Nothing you can do about that. I've only folded big boats to quads twice in my life...and I don't think I'll ever do it online.
