did i make the right call?

This is very similar to the situation I just got broke on... however, the BIG exception is size of your stack. @ 4.5K per 10 hands (consider 1 blind increase), you are still looking probably another 30 hands after this...

I would read the chip leader as trying to define his hand and get heads-up (not sure I like his AK all-in) but, I think your call at this point is at best close to even money against AK, maybe even 4-1 against AA & KK.

Pot odds may justify a call, but you still have 34K to scare other players since the chip leader at your table only has an average stack size in the tourney.

Unless your were short stacked, you probably should have waited to be the one putting the pressure on...
