i can't figure out if I played this right, so I thought I'd ask for a few opinions here. Here's the rundown:
Poker Stars NLH Tourney (369 Entrants)
15 Players left
I am 15th/15th with 10k and 4k committed as the bb (so 6k left in my stack).
I have AT in the bb.
Tourney Chip Leader Bets All-In from 3rd position (he has been bullying a little bit, and his raise seems a bit strange, I'm definitely calling him)
Unfortunately, a tight player calls all-in immediately behind him. There are not many hands the tight player can have. I figure to call all-in (about 40k at this point) he has to have AA, KK, AK, QQ, or maybe JJ.
I still think I have the chip leader beat, but b/c TIGHT BOY called, I give myself at best 3 outs, and probably 2 since the chip leader might have Ax. Even though I am extremely short-stacked, I can't bring myself to call in a hand when, at best, I have 3 outs.
Anyway, I fold.
The chip leader had K6 and TIGHTBOY had QQ. Of course, the board comes A 7 6 A 2.
Two hands later from the button, I call another short-stacks bet to go all-in with KJ and lose to A2.
How would you have played it?
