Re: Was this punishment fair ? (longish)
If he was the other big stack, no point in calling. You are out of position and putting a reasonable amount of chips into a pot which you are almost going to get outmanouverd on.
Calling with A-2 out ofposition against another big stack, what can you hope to hit? Ace comes, you will doubt your kicker, straight draw comes, then do you realy want to go all in on a draw? (if your opponent moves in, in this case he did) same as flush draw. Only thing you can hit to be fairly confident would be 2 pair or something like that, but even in this case, againast AA it's quite hard. lol.
I think fold preflop, you can get your blinds back later when YOU have position / cards.
