folds, of course.

no matter how aggressively you have been playing, you cannot call here.

I agree with Soss, I don't see how you can stick with this here barring a read that CO is a hardcore maniac, in which case I'd probably waffle a bit, and then fold.

Too early in the tournament to do anything but fold here. If it was late in the tournament, that may be a resteal. However, it is early so probably a legitimate hand. That being said, you are behind just about anything it could be.

While I would hate doubling the guy up, it is just as likely you are facing a bigger ace as a smaller pair (considering how aggressive you said you were earlier). Since the blinds are still pretty low, a call here may discourage the other players from playing back at you with anything but premium hands later on, since they know you may call them down with a weak ace. From a table image perspective, this may be worth the chips should you lose, as you will still be ahead of most others in chips. You are also calling T615 here for T990, getting 3-2, unless he has a better Ace, the price isn't that bad...

but the call costs too much of his stack to justify a "gigabet" type move in that spot.

I don't like raising with AT when the blinds are still so low. Now that you did, this is an easy fold.
