Re: I call this right??
[ QUOTE ]
I knew before calling that the guy probably had at least an ace (if not a king) and that I would probably have a 25% chance of busting out fourth. Thats why i thought after that folding might be a better option, but then I thought that I was crazy. So I wanted to get other perspectives.

I think even Aces have something like a 18-19% chance of losing to a random hand.
You were right to call this on the bubble. This sets you up very well to try and win if you survive the hand.
perhaps if the short stack is short enough a fold is correct, but depending on who's pushing I might call no matter how short the short stack is (and in some cases because the short stack is so low). This may be wrong, but if you're willing to call with AA no matter what the stacks are, against certain opponents QQ isn't much worse than AA (since they will be pushing any 2 with an extremely short stack in play).
