Hey guys. I saw this hand out on the web. Hero is a good player from what I've read. I was suprised at the PF fold. Is this fold correct?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (4 handed) converter

SB (t955)
BB (t3530)
Hero (t4080)
Button (t1435)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
Hero raises to t400, 1 fold, SB raises to t855, 1 fold, Hero folds.

Final Pot: t1455

No the fold is very wrong. Against JJ you would want to call here with Q7s

Thanks curtains.

Simple enough. I just wanted to make sure my impression was correct as I'm a newbie to SNG's.

Well theres over 1550 in the pot and it costs you 550 to call. The math isn't complicated.

Definitely. I was just making sure there wasn't some aspect to bubble play that I was missing.

Thanks again.

I do not like the min raise with Q7S by the hero, but the fold is worse.
