the guy to my right goes all-in for about 12K. My read on him isn't great, but he's loose

I look down at A-Ko and fold.

How do you get from A to B?

yeah, I don't get it. Are we supposed to applaud his weak tight play?

I'm not sure how you get from my thinking it may have been a mistake to I'm asking for applause.

My thinking is this, I like to be the aggressor, I like having fold equity, I've got the chips now to play for first, losing here cripples me, and I kinda like the guy for a small pair trying to shove out the min-raise. I wasn't sure I wanted to coin-flip to crippled or a bigger chip lead when I already liked my chances to play for first.

Plus the buy in was seventy so it wasn't like being in the money for a hundred was very exciting.

But yeah, I've been wondering if it was a bad mistake.

For the results oriented among you, the guy implied that he had a medium ace after the hand. I ended up chopping evenly when me and one other guy got heads up a bit later.
