Default My all in is correct, his call is incorrect, correct?

33. Was my all in here correct? Unless he has a truly premium hand here (QQ through AA) he should fold here shouldn't he?

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

Button (t2535)
Hero (t4277)
BB (t748)
UTG (t440)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t900</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t4277 (All-In)</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button ????

Just because people should fold doesn't mean they will fold. Your opponents are donks. If this guy is a donk, you really should lay this down. Against a normal $33er, I don't give him enough credit to laydown QQ-AA, so I fold.

Just because his call would be incorrect doesn't make your call correct if he's going to call anyways.

He seemed to be an experienced player. He actually had AQo - would you lay it down?

Boy, that'd be a hard laydown. First, I would push preflop here. I think he raised too much of his stack... but I think I could laydown AQ here. I don't know if I would though.

if the BB say has 250 or so after folding, this play will work. If button hadnt committed so much (say you were button and he was BB) this play prolly works. however - especially if you have been bullying so far - when the fish have raised they are much more likely to call here... why not try a stop and go? he is going to feel his AQ is too good to fold here, however one the flop comes and he has missed its a different story here.

I would call with AQo and here is why (i would have pushed to being with for the record) I would call because there is a good enough chance you are abusing/using the big stack and I could be a nice favorite. If I win I have a much better chance for 1st where the money is. I'm not sure of the ICM calculations but thast what i would probably do....i think..

Maybe, but I hadn't really been wielding my stack, the hands I'd shown down had been respectable enough. I think if I'd have been him I would have had to have put me on any pair, Ax and, perhaps, 2 paint.

Yes, despit having 10+ BB, that makes sense, I would (obviously) have laid down, since my play only works because I think I have almost absolute FE.
