Re: that is what happened, down to the suits, how did you know?
I think you played it terribly when you sat down with your whole bankroll. That's what created the mess, and why getting called was a problem. If it had been any reasonable percentage of your bankroll, you'd be happy with the call. When it's 100% of your bankroll, you don't want a call, which makes the early push the best play in context. You should hope to win the pot there, then leave and join another table with fewer chips.

Re: that is what happened, down to the suits, how did you know?
I am going to go out on a limb here and assume that $115 was just his account balance at Party Poker and not his entire life savings.
I don't see anything wrong with risking a small amount of your overall net worth on a single hand. The account balance is easily replacable. As far as the play of the hand, when the hero acts there are still four live hands other than his. A big raise is in order. A pot sized raise would be to $50, so I don't think an all-in raise to $115 is too much out of line. Paul
