Default Right choice? my death at today\'s SnG

3 left, from the 2-table SNG.

I am on the button with 4815
Kman on the SB with 6546
McMelchior on the BB with 15640

blinds are 400/800 with 50 ante.

I have been pretty tight (I saw 15% of flops over whole tourn, had seen 2 showdowns, won em both and won 15 other hands from 126)

I get KhQd

I raise to 2400 (too much? probably?)

Kman reraises to 4000.

I figure I can't fold here, blinds are too big and I would be significantly smallest stack (2400 against 9000 and 15640). Looking back tho maybe a fold is the right move

So call or raise allin? I decide there is no need to go all in. There is no clear benefit. I figure he either has A and someting or a pocket pair. If the flop comes with an A and no K or Q and he bets then I fold. If the flop shows anything else then I call/move in.

flop comes A67, he bets, so I fold.

I figure the chances of a recovery are greater than my chances of winning the pot.

My 715 chips disappear in the next hand (2h,3c - typical).


any thoughts?

Tim
