The following describes the criteria to fold aces preflop.


when folding guarantees a huge increase in money
which is
- on/near the bubble in a satelite when you have an
above average stack.
- a big bubble in an MTT (like the jump from 4th to 3rd is
usually pretty big, same w/ 3rd to 2nd. This situation
happens when two stacks of same size go all in before you
like the hand you mentioned, but keep reading.


AND

- Calling, and losing would either knock you out, or
cripple you pretty badly.


The second part is not the case in your situation, because
even if you lose the hand, you'll just be where they were
when they made their move, AND you're still guaranteed your
spot. Also, by calling you're like 75% to move up TWO spots
here. Insta-call. Unless you play a lot of satelites you
most likely won't have to deal with any situations in which
you fold aces.


Period.
